Looking only at Monza results it might look like a disappointment but on Monza non-circuit stages nobody had any experience, here others had lots + new car.

Still not liking the "pressure/hype" some people and sometimes seemingly also him is putting on himself. Imo it leads to "overpush" which seemed to be the case on at least 3 stages this weekend.
Now I´m guessing: In the PS they let him go flat out. No limitation at all. Just let him get the feeling of trying hard. This time ended stuck in a snowbank. With spectators on site this maybe only would´ve gor 10-30 secs loss. So still learnt a lot even on PS.

Don´t think people setting more pressure on him than on Kalle a couple of years ago.
