yr.no showing dry weather all night and day over tomorrow's stages. Obviously there has been rain on them today so they could be(come) more dirty.

I didnt mean that Kalle is better or something - just a reminder that he is very young and he is doing very well. I dont place him in one league with any other wrc2 drivers as yet as he is to young (ok, he drives maybe more years than some other drivers in wrc2, but by young I mean life experience etc). I'd give him few more years to develop, gain experience....

ventusky.com show heavy rain all morning and near a mid-day to light rain. So it's gonna be full wet tyres for 1st loop.

I also heard similar conditions for tomorrow. Gismeteo also doesn`t show much, also something around 14.

I place him in higher league than large majority of the WRC2 drivers. In a year or two the WRC2 will be a too small pond for him.

Any footage from Tänak puncture? In typical WRC+ fashion the onboard is missing while basically all other drivers are there.

This even looks like it could be same stage and I think it was FR puncture (or FL)? :

If it rains the tire issue gets reversed and the cars that ran FW both times have no more left.
