    I think Harri has always stayed in the background and only made things possible for Kalle, not giving advice or making decisions unless being asked

    But what I saw this was very scary ride, that kind of driving will not go til the finishline without a major accident, no way....
    And this is on stages without the big yumps !

    Anybody else would have been swiftly dismissed; he's not ready for R1 cars just yet. The talent is there, but needs developing, in his own time - and he needs to be a little more humble.

    Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

    There was a text before the stage that the stage was delayed by 5 min. Maybe Kalle was sent accidentally too early ?

    That’s disappointing, the longest stage of the rally cancelled.
