The roads on the rally could be a bit more on the super fast side than on the testing areas. But most importantly it gives fresh snow rally experience for these two drivers.

And both of them must score points for the team on Rally Sweden. So they must gain some confidence on snow.

Yes, all that seems logical. And better for us (rally fans)!

It seems to me that this entry is more for the two drivers than for car development.

I don't get why they don't let all their drivers compete there. Having them do more stage kilometers can only give positive results.

Yeah, F1 is always the priority for FIA. And with the shitstorm going down over there, there isn't probably enough time left to work with WRC at the top level. Albeit, Bin Sulayem and Reid are born and bred rallymen, so it's more than possibly the most ideal situation for WRC. The problem is with the manufacturers, imo. In reality, WRC needs a massive step back with Rally 2s becoming the top category and massive cost caps on cars. But, good luck finding a board to agree on ditching hybrids.

Wet conditions. Portuguese Autosport brought something to the table... the WRC2 crews are using a WRC spec tyre that is harder than the spec Meeke and other CPR runners are using.
