Congratulations @KalleRovanpera !The Drivers Licence is yours!

Kalle Rovanperä has succesfully completed his driving test!

It should've been hard for him. Congrats!

Would be quite funny in case of not passing the test On the other hand it must be big pressure that everybody expects him to pass, so hats off.

It was funny - when 5 years ago Vasiliy Gryazin did not succeed to get his driver licence several times in a row. One of "reason" in one of the unsuccessful occasions was announced - "he doesn't feel car good enough"

Kalle's BRC season will probably be quite short. The two first events are at the same time as WRC rallies of Mexico and Argentina, which he will prefer. Then the third event is Ypres, where his driver's license is not valid for rallying(?). Then he can do Ulster, Isle of Man and of course Wales WRC rally.

So maybe some rallies in Latvia and/or Finland?

Neste Rally Finland for sure. Not sure if Latvia has anything to give for him anymore?

I'm also not sure, but as they say "practice makes perfect", also ERC should be good enough if there no better options...

But he can only do rallies in Finland, GB and Latvia in Europe. Mexico, Argentina and Australia have a lower age for driving, that's why he's going to those events.

Yes, I know that, I meant ERC Liepaja event in Latvia, it should be in calendar next year. Also Latvia and Finland has snow/ice events, witch could be useful to improve skills on that surface.
