So far at least three of my predictions have come true! Championship decider is the final round, Mikkelsen will finish behind Neuville in the standings, and while he hasn't quite regained his form Paddon did score a podium in Turkey! I missed the mark quite a lot with Latvala being champion though.

My final prediction to be confirmed is whether Tanak has as many victories as retirements. Is it correct so far?

Edit: not quite, but if I count Rally 2 as retiring and he retires/restarts in Australia that'll be correct too!
