    Imagine that.

    They did some big changes after Latvala started in December, maybe those wouldn't happen before homologation.
    Without experienced drivers on top of that maybe they wouldn't get a podium before Finland.

    Would Tanak then change if he was n1 at MSport?Very likely not. But it is possible Latvala or someone else would switch for 2018 (Meeke?). Still the Toyota WRC project saga would look quite different.

    Also remember that 2017 was supposed to be Toyota's development year. They didn't aim for wins. What happened in Sweden 2017 was a surprise to them, and likely aided by Latvala's last minute tweaks.

    Very good. I LOL'd at when he asked Suninen whether he said too much at CMore and perhaps someone asked him to "shut up" ("turpa kiinni") because it's such a strong idiom.

    Such a good interview.

    The Barum's candidature is quite surprising.

    Too bad.
    For an Alllive viewer Ypres was utterly boring to watch the first two days, same just looking at results.

    Hopefully the itenary is different and/or the weather is more tricky that would make it interesting.
    (same as Monza 2020 vs 2021)

    It wasn't all that exciting in person as well to be honest, although I suspect Ypres needs expirience of the stages to find the right spots.
