Could almost think you are trolling?

Neuville won his first WRC rally on tarmac and won Corsica last year.
Sordo won his only rally on tarmac and used to be the defition of tarmac specialist since Panizzi retired.
Mikkelsen also won his first WRC rally on tarmac (well ontarmac+gravel in Spain). As mentioned he also drove same car with Kopecky on Monte and Corsica and was clearly faster.

When a trio of tarmac drivers like this finished as last 3 wrcs on 2stages in Germany behind Suninen in his first tarmac rally and behind Østberg who didnt drive on tarmac in 2 years and was never good on it, it certainly stays more about the car than the drivers.
