But it is a big point in drivers discussion.

As a team boss in WRC whom would you pick. A driver winning WRC2 when he has limited number of competitors or WRC3 driver that actually is fastest (like Solberg (
"private" driver with factory support) or Huttunen).

As a driver wanting to drive WRC where should you go? Drive WRC2 (and probably get paid) or drive WRC3 and have more comptetition.

Nothing of this is Østbergs fault and it doesn't diminish that he beat what was there. Still doesn't mean it's not a problem.
