Kopecky won last year Czech championship rallies and all his WRC2 starts except Catalunya.

Eerik Pietarinen won overall or his class last year in 6/11 of his starts, including Rally Estonia and Rally Finland. And in 2017 he won his class in everything he started in Finland (although all but one start were with Group N) with one technical retirement.

But still, I like Gryazin and I think he's very talented. I'm just not expecting too much yet.
