    True, if Tänak retires.

    In term of Raw speed, do you think Ott and Kalle are on par?

    Yes, I think so.

    We can only speculate, for actual comparing we need to put them to the same car.

    It's not maybe "raw speed", but maybe even more important argument - we (at least I) don't know Kalles's development and setup skills. He got "out of the box" ready rocket to drive.

    But Kalle is a huge talent. Literally grown up behind the wheel. He is so young and can fill all the "its better to have experience" stuff with time.

    I just hope we don't have one-man-show in the WRC in coming years and that's why I hope that Tänak continues.

    First two days at Monte this year Kalle was multiple times slower than Rally2 cars.

    Not exactly out of the box rocket ...

    Yeah but he found something after those two awful days in Monte and has been almost unstoppable since then.
    Sounds more like a setup thing or found a specific wat to handle that "rocket". Those 2 days are just a tiny bit of the overall season and this rocket was 2nd in Monte in the hands of Ogier. Kalle found out very quickly the ways to tame the Yaris.

    Bertelli 3/10 due to lack of experience - which is supposed to be reflected in what a 10 is.

    But at least he came home with decent points.
