    This is actually his first time driving competitively on these stages. If you compare him with Rovanpera at similar point in his career (start of 2018 season) the results are very similar. (Rovanpera had one more 4WD season at that point though)
    Kalle had 2 seasons in R5 in Latvia (with 2 snow rallys per season) and 2 seasons in WRC2 = 4 seasons in R5 car
    Oliver has only 1 season with PoloR5 last year in Latvia and 1Monte rally this year.
    So uncomparable in terms of experiences.

    Have you actually looked at the results? The kid has very little experience and today was 2nd fastest R5 car across the 4 stages, when all these guys are pushing like crazy. They said clearly that they had made set up changes after Friday.
    I’m not here to make apologies for any driver, but this comment is plainly ridiculous.

    I can't take Ostberg seriously when he's gloating about a win, that isn't actually a win. Surely he's not kidding himself. He was beaten by Huttunen and Lindholm, great drive by those two.

    Happy for Jari even more so that he's done it with uncertainty surrounding his future/ season plans, while smashing the "Hyundai" drivers who have lined Tanak and Martin's pockets....

    Yes! Congratulations to Jari Huttunen on his fantastic victory! I haven't verified it, but I read somewhere that it was the first ever win for Hyundai R5 in WRC.

    Kajto announced his rally programme for this year. He is going to compete in 7 WRC-3 rounds, starting with Rally Mexico (12-15 March 2020). The LOTOS Rally team crew will drive a Skoda Fabia R5 evo, run by Spanish company RaceSeven.

    Details and photos of new livery:

    And even better, he did it in an old-spec not-upgraded i20 R5 !

    OC Veiby said recently that he doesnt worry about fighting guys in WRC3 as his focus is points for the WRC2 Championship.

    So kind of saying he could beat them but doesnt need to.

    Hmmm.
