    Katsuta retiring on the Safari Rally's final road section drops him out of the top five in the championship standings.

    After 3 rallies, rovanpera en katsuta have 31 and 25 points. Ogier, having done only 1 rally has 33 points.

    I wonder in what condition is Kalle's mental state in this situation. He has been mostly winning during his career so far and hasn't experienced such hard times. Neuville, Evans and Tänak have all had their difficult periods, but are still up there competing for titles.

    2021 - Rovanpera had 3 (4 if 6th at Safari included) sub-optimal results in a row and came back and won his first WRC events in Estonia & Acropolis. Things did not always go his way in Rally 2 as well - the big accident in Argentina for example.
    2024 - Was win it or bin it. Sweden 39, Portugal 31, Finland accident. Plus 4 wins in Kenya, Poland, Latvia and Chile

    It's a new ball game for Kalle in many ways after his break last year. There's the changes in the Rally1 Cars, the new Hankook tyres and a new points system.

    Kalle will take his time to adapt but I'm sure it wont affect his mentality. He never took winning for granted and he'll stay humble and just give his best as before.
