To the fun points here:
-The kid who didn't cut it as works driver in 2022 (Solberg) did so because of crashing, not so much due to speed.

- Solberg, Greensmith, Gryazin etc. have by now far more stage kms in the new Fabia than Mikkelsen and some of them also test much more.

- on a bad rally he still got 4th and leads championship with less or equal starts than anyone else. On the rally before he led almost whole rally and was joint fastest on PS. Yet "every rally he does makes him look less worthy"...ok

- he gets paid by Skoda for WRC2 title chase, that the other Skoda drivers seem far from certain to get vs Rossel. But yeah "get a proper job". Now that we have established that rally isn't a proper job can we send Tanak to go drive a garbage truck? Or does the "proper job" apply selectively?
For once I agree...sort of.
