Porsche has been slower than R3...
And Abarth is not faster than Porsche.

Is that because they're old RWDs and the R2 are modern cars with better suspension and brakes?

How do You know? It has nearly 400 kg less. So far we haven't seen a single stage time.

at tarmac I expect to be faster from r2 but slower from r3.
at gravel imho he will loose from both.
I am talking for average performance,and not some stages that could use the advantage of extra power.

Not really, some of the old RWD's are worth twice as much as an R2

You mean that some drivers are faster with R2 cars than some other drivers,
even if they are driving in R3 cars.
