If anything will prepare him for a good result in Italy it will be the time spent wringing the neck of the WRC2 car and the possibility that may transfer into speed in the top league.
Just great to see Andreas back in a WRC car. I dont think he will be battling for the victory straight away. It took some time before he was consistant top 3 driver in the `16 Polo.

Speed transfer from wrc2 car to wrc17 car could even mean crashing out also.
