Martins Sesks

[1988senna]

From the performance till Greece, how can we define the level of sesks, Maybe he only can favour in Poland and latvia??

[EstWRC]

He is very difficult to judge cause he has so little experience but I have been more disappointed with him than impressed so far.

Rally Estonia will tell us more.

The raw talent is definitely there.

What will define his future is whether the opportunity to develop naturally will suffice. He needs to be in a space where expectations are low(ered) and seat time is guaranteed. In short, a works contract without the budget worries. A bit like the situation Adrien Fourmaux was in a few years back.

Of course, that is easier said than done. Especially in such an uncertain climate.

The talent is definitely there, but it seems he was put too early into Rally1 machinery. He doesn't have the experience with many of the rallies and 1-2 full seasons with a good Rally2 car would help him become a better driver.

He is much better option than all other Puma drivers right now. If we consider all drivers who ever drive that car, I would put him in that order 1. Tanak 2. Loeb 3. Fourmaux 4. Breen 5. Sesks and then all others (sorry, Munster isn't better, because I think that his ''good'' performances is overshadowed with ''his bad luck''. Many technical problems may come from, how you manage the car). Simply as that, this year they are completely shot away with this driver lineup, as many years before they demote their struggling drivers to become better, but not this time. Look how great Tanak, Evans, and Fourmau become, so maybe they should start doing this again on a year basis.

It's true that Sesks, McErlean & Munster would benefit from more years learning the WRC rallies in a Rally2 car.

But if it meant that M-Sport was out of WRC1 or with just Serderidis would we prefer that ?

At least we have extra Rally1 car entries and a team kept alive until the costs get lowered...

Sesks might turn out to be "just" a specialist of fast gravel rallies, like Gilles Panizzi was for asphalt. But he's still young and deserves a chance, it would probably be better for him to get experience from slow gravel and asphalt with a Rally2.

What you are missing, probably, Sesks and his support team, including driving coaches are very smart people. Martins is very fast driver, but he would not go bananas on unknown roads. Experience. Sardinia was just a 0,5m wrong line...sh... happends. Those who suggest R2 - look how many fast drivers are parked there forever. R2 is not functioning as natural show-case for WRC due to limited places. Look at Solberg, Greensmith, Rosell, Solan,ERC is packed with good drivers. One young and fast driver today must take his opportunities.
