What? In very difficult times of pandemic and lockdowns he competed in as many as 9 rallies and that's probably not all. Show me another driver in WRC3 with such budget (apart from Solberg of course)

The Polish championship rallies are short, under 10 stages, all three of them are most likely worth one WRC3 event.
Rally di Alba and Louna-Eesti Ralli were driven under Hyundai Motorsport for whatever reason.
That leaves Rally Bohemia, which is an ERC length event, again shorter than a WRC rally. And anyway Rally Estonia was shorter than WRC events normally.
So basically we could sum that he's done worth of 5 WRC3 events.

You shall not ignore that it's often not him but interest of Hyundai Poland and Vlček alone what drives the decisions where to start. It's not like Huttunen would be simply renting the car from them. See that even in WRC he has large KoWax banners on the car. KoWax is a brand of Svarmetal company making welding equipment and materials and is owned by Vlček.

BTW Huttunen was interviewed in Helsingin Sanomat, the biggest newspaper in Finland
https://www.hs.fi/urheilu/art-2000006671456.html
He says that the Kowax team was looking for a driver and Hyundai adviced them to get Huttunen. Huttunen says the team is good, they have a lot of enthusiasm for rallying and they listen to him. He says the 2018 season failed because the car wasn't developed at all during the year. He has no idea about his next season, saying "you can only hope".
He also talks about his side hobby business, converting old buses into RV's.

TBH I dont get why some places have anti-cut devices when other identical kind of places allow huge cutting and the throwing of dirt all over the road.
