Since the planning is over and the team is doing well, they deserve a new team thread.

Personally I must say that the team and car is a very positive surprize in the 2017 seaon so far.
Very few thought that they would be able to produce a competitive car year 1.
Latvala's testing just before homologation gave them a lot of useful input that probably gave them a better starting point.

But few had thought thay would take a second place im MC, and a win in Sweden.

In Finland the car looked like the easiest to drive, and was very stable over the jumps, and had very good traction.
When a driver with little WRCar experience like Lappi, can win with it, they must have done much right in the Mäkinen barn :-)
