The risk in WRC is that he will be "in the middle of nowhere" behind all experienced drivers (like Suninen and Lappi were on overseas rallies last year). At that point he might either try to push and get retirements (and not learn much from the rallies) or spend so long at "less than top speed" that the step up can be difficult.
Ogier was somehow in similar situation though and after a year of clearly behind everyone he managed to step up nicely.




I lied a bit. There was some wet running at the Barcelona preseason testing l recall. Some teams have wet experience. McLaren, Williams, Aston Martin and possibly Redbull did not do much wet running...
