Also don't forget Sousa is driving a Ford Fiesta RRC, I'm a bit unsure if, and how much it is faster than R5. Sousa is around in WRC since 2008, and since stages are changing only very little over the years, he has had plenty of time to prove himself. In 2010 he was driving SWRC with a Fiesta S2000 with 2 years of WRC experience under his belt, I remember him being beaten by drivers like Pons, Kosciuszko, Ketomaa, Prokop, Sandell and more. Where are those drivers now?
For me Sousa's performance in WRC-2 is more a proof of the poor condition of the championship, than of his "amazing talent". And yes he did good with his win in Azores, but Vaclav Pech won Barum Rally this year and that also doesn't make him a WRC star...
