Kalle Rovanpera says the World Rally Championship's new cars are "tricky" to drive on snow, requiring a "lot of work in the cockpit" following a first test in the conditions.

I didn't know RoC was still a thing. Last time I watched it was some ten years ago

Huh that's all kinds of unexpected. Østberg part, Meeke was mentioned by Skoda themselves before as a candidate and is testing the new car for them.

Does it mean it's completely over with Citroen? Is Skoda in some way paying for the start?

Did not see this coming,but very clever! Like @TGR_WRC
#Toyota now also @HMSGOfficial
#Hyundai´s official testing place is located in #Finland! That´s why they are testing there during this week for #RallySweden. It will be very busy year for Finnish professional spectators! #WRC

[EstWRC]

Hyundai have chosen to use Jämsä, Finland, as their permanent testing site for 2022 #WRC season. They are following Toyota's example as TGR have used the roads near their HQ for testing since their return to the series.

Solberg also said to finnish TV news today somethin like that if you can make the car work here(Finland), it works everywhere
