I won't be interested in circuit racing, no matter who's driving. Rallying is the only (motor)sport I follow

Meanwhile in Italy: Finnish Future Star Aatu Hakalehto drives his first tarmac rally and finished 2nd with some stage class wins. Tuukka Kauppinen and Jarkko Nikara cannot match his pace.

Ogier is the first driver to win WRC in all continents. Loeb never won in Africa, Sainz never in North America, Kankkunen never in Asia.

Cones in the desert, 50% of roads will need work before rally.

Yeah.

Second brand new rally of the season. A mix between Safari, Poland and Australia, so that might be an interesting one especially if it rains. Also crowd control and behaviour is a question mark.

Request to WRC Promoter: end the contract of Mike Chen. Reason: not doing his job as well as should be done. Talking all the time falsy facts and not noticing what happens on screen, for example two big moments for Ogier today.

True, especially the knowledge from ERC was valuable against others who hadn't done those events in years. And conversely Sesks hasn't done WRC events in years before Rally1 starts

Let's see what the average speed will be on this stage. I presume 137 km/h on first pass and 138.5 km/h on power stage

Is it the jumps which are holding Martins Sesks back from his Latvia pace? Not based on this performance in Parkkola
