Why would not Rovanperä and Veiby go for WRC2 points?

I presume they can only nominate a certain number of rounds for WRC2 points and they are not too confident of scoring well on Monte?

I'm happy to see Bouffier get the third Fiesta if that is indeed confirmed, but I won't be expecting too much from him this time with a new type of car and new and inexperienced co-driver.

If it's Jerome Degout then he has a quite good and experienced co driver next to him.

Theoretically if you don't go as Priority 2 driver (so non WRC2 entry) and FIA will not nominate you then you have much more freedom with tires, so maybe that is also one of the reasons of Rovanpera and Veiby decisions? As we all know tires on Monte might be crucial.
If Bouffier will drive with Degandt then for sure that is very good and experienced codriver. And Bryan has a lot of knowledge about the roads, conditions, etc so he can use as his big advantage over the guys who know their cars better than him.

It was written in another thread that his co-driver will be Degout, who was most recently alongside Sylvain Michel.

Hope Bryan will get some good testing in.
