According to this http://www.ewrc-results.com/profile.php?p=456&sct=1, it looks like 1992 was first full WRC season for him.
Also, don't get me wrong, I don't think he as good as McRae, or Latvala.

Doesn't change the fact he was massively more experienced than Kubica at this stage.

This really annoys me, not because Sordo isn't quicker than Hanninen, but because teams are not giving new drivers any security during their progression.
Sordo is obviously going to be quicker than Hanninen at the moment, but if Juho doesn't get the experience he'll never get faster. Sordo has been around the block with many full season, how can anyone expect a guy who has done a handful of events in a works car at the top level (WRC in a WRC car) be quicker right now?
I can see Citroen replacing Meeke after a couple more offs, with a reliable guy like Sordo. They might pick up more points, but they'll never find someone to challenge Ogier, surely this is the priority?
