    Hasn't this been the same in the past years? You can nominate your events? In 2017 Camilli was the fastest R5 in Sardegna but didn't win WRC2. The difference is just that Oliver is using the P2 status.

    And yes, it's risky if rallies start getting cancelled, like with Östberg in 2020.

    On previous years, you could either be a P2 or non priority. I don't think it was possible to drive without scoring points and still have the P2 status. Only exception might be Monza Rally, after all the misunderstandings regarding regulations.

    Yeah. In 2019 the WRC2Pro drivers didn't have to nominate anything since they could add up all the rallies they started in. I don't remember 2020 though, but there were so few rallies and no drivers with so big budgets that they would do extra non-nominated events that we didn't get to see any tactics played.

    Who in RC2 will be the surprize of Monte?

    We have many locals, will one of them do the drive of their lives?

    If it is dry - Bonato. And like last year: Camilli and Ciamin.

    Dont forget they will be running on Pirelli now. Most of them were usually using Michelin. This should be also big difference.

    If we will have snow/ice on the stages tomorrow, we will also see many combinations of crossing tyres - with many drivers using this technique for the first time, so we can see big time differences ss to ss depending what shoes the driver choose!

    After just 6 stages Bonato lost already nearly 3 minutes to Mikkelsen. Ciamin is even slower...

    Bonato is strange, last year in Hungary he was minutes behind everywhere, then on Canarias in relatively similar conditions (slippery, but much less gravel) he was in top, now back to minutes behind.

    If it is dry... Regardless of that, French guys are up to now quite big disappointment or the rest is much much better than last year.

    I wouldn't say Canarias were similar to Hungary. On the island even with rain the grip was quite good.
