    Martins Sesks

    Two superb events in Rally1 machinery! Martins Sesks is hot property and we can't ignore him.

    Time to take stock and predict where his WRC journey is likely to lead.

    Sesks has pulled out of the next ERC round in Italy. Clever move given the question marks surrounding MRF rubber.

    I think its more to do with Semenuk crashing his car @ Latvia rally. Not enough time for repairs.

    Same hope from me, it makes more sense to continue in WRC2 instead of ERC and gain experience on rallies where he should compete regularly for next decade.

    For now, he is not as competitive on tarmac and more technical gravel rallies but there is potential and time to improve.

    As well as his impressive speed at the events in the Puma Rally1 car, his attitude and personality define him as a future star just as much.

    He was a dream to interview at stage ends and was able to accept the praise with humility, gratitude and good humour. He also managed to stay relaxed despite enormous attention and expectation at his home rally.

    If anyone can attract funding and sponsorship its Martins. I wouldnt be surprised if Malcolm Wilson sees what a great investment he is and finds a way to get him into the M-Sport Puma with some of his own money.

    Yes, that's true. It's a pleasure to watch him, not only on the stages, but also in the interviews. Compared to him most WRC drivers seem sad, bored and frustrated, as if somebody forced them to sit in those rally cars. Martins is like a breath of fresh air in WRC.
