No reason to panic though, this and Finland are quite specific events and the Fabia (and I guess maybe therefore Polo too?) are known for being capable of a very high top speed. Maybe Fiesta is geared in a different way.

have the impression that older spec fiesta r5 could be faster.

So Mikelson running new aero vs Breen the old who complains of understeer, positive for Hyundai for there new aero fixing the handling issues before Finland

new aero can fix understeer only on high speed and probably at mid speed corners. Slow corners they will have understeer, so new aero isn't a full solution for Hyundai

While his progress and speed on the rallies where he started this year is indeed impressive, it's quite some way to go before he is like Rovanpera, competetive on just about all rallies/surfaces

Disagree. If you´ve watched Olivers career, they did all thing the right way from his age of 8 years. He did it all. Driving RX, Crosscarts etz, and winning. yes, his education did start in Latvia and has done good to him. Learning to take slides on 6th gear, not shifting down to 5th, is all what rallying on top level is about.

I am not saying he is not learning or that they are not learning correctly. Just that he still has a long way to go on other types of rallies/surfaces.

I do think he has much shorter way than any other coming guy...
