Looks like you didn't notice that the new rally Japan will be on tarmac.
I think he means that a tarmac round should be introduced, or replace a gravel round, rather than replace an event already on tarmac. Something I agree with, makes the championship a bit more even in terms of surfaces.
9 rallies started, 5 won. one 3th place as worst result.
no, i don't think kalle or ott would have been able to beat him if he did a full season in the same car.
I think Ogier knowing he didn’t have to do Sweden, Kenya & Estonia helped him a bit. Also no Hybrid makes him seem as if he’s in that Polo R again.
