WRC Rally Monza 2021

On a side topic, i find Rossel impressive. Despite the punch in the face due to the lost appeal (and I think this was pretty unfair ...) and the huge pressure, he is on route for WRC3 and WRC2 victory (same as Ypres). He has been truely dominant in WRC3 this year and is now on par with WRC2 top contenders. It ain't over 'till it's over, but the lad may have a bright future.

Title done for Ogier except mechanical failure, let’s see if he will take some risks on the circuit or let the win to Evans (the second option I think).
Clean job for Solberg so far, Suninen quite disappointing on the other hand. Katsuta so-so, with his experience on circuit, should have been closer to Solberg and far ahead for Greensmith.

In WRC-2, Huttunen in the lead but he shows absolutely nothing so far in RC2 class except on circuit, quite lucky so far. The only positive is that it would be the first victory from M-Sport in either WRC-2 Pro/WRC-2/WRC-3 for more than 2 years (Greensmith in Turkey in 2019).

In WRC-3, Rossel take a good lead to Kajto this morning but Crugnola is close and was the fastest on the circuit part yesterday so it may interfere in the championship fight between the 2. So it is not finished and all may be at stake during the Power Stage for the title.

Last proper stage done for WRC2017 cars. Now only five super specials left.

Pretty nice proper stages to end the era - like an Autumnal Monte-Carlo.

The real pity has been the domination of the Toyota's here. I really expected the Hyundai's to be in the fight for the win too.

Fourmaux straight on at the first corner in Monza circuit. Not nice stages but not easy either.

Ogier in defensive mode and Evans takes the lead ... but logical from Ogier, finishing with the title is the most important, especially on that type of stages.

Rossel lost a lot of time in this one ... may be really complicated for him now because he seems clearly less competitive than Kajto in the circuit part

Ahh... Monza is not a WRC event IMO. These cars are too powerfull for most of the tight stages. Its an ERC event max.
Boy Im gonna miss these cars =[

Ogier carefully now

How could FIA approve that 2021 championship to be decided by mickey mouse stages on an old racetrack with some gravel parts?

Tragic seen from a sport point of view!
