Yes very fun to follow, and he seems to get it quikly too.

This talented young driver is following Sébastien Loeb rallye driver and Word champion for many years then finished second 24 th hours of Le Mans and was near to drive in formula 1 for Réd Bull after conclusive test !! A very rare diversity indeed.

Don't break the oath !

Quite literally. Drivers 20 years ago started their careers in their 20s. Petter won his first title at 29, Loeb over 30. This new generation of drivers is born from those guys, and they were born and bred from the age of 5 to be rally drivers and nothing else. Guys like Kalle and Max in F1 learned to race from the age they could reach the pedals. Racing is all they've ever known. The oldschool guys have no chance against them

@@MentalParadox , yes but there is nothing wrong with that, it has, for instance, been very normal for musicians ,for ever, and it's true for IT chaps today too. Not to mention the army and the navy back in time. And chess comes to my mind too.

@@hurri7720 The natural problem with car racing is that usually you need a license to drive a car, so unless your parents put you on a go-kart or in Kalle's case gets him into a closed road, the kids themselves might not be able to have the chance to learn how to drive until they are at driving license age. And with rally, that license is needed even more so because it is assumed that the driver will be doing the liaison sections which are done on public road. Kalle did his first rally events in Latvia with a Latvian license (the windows even had the Latvian flag next to his name), because there they allowed the co-driver to do all the liaison stages and thus the driver can be underage without a driving license. But normally while the co-driver can still do the liaison, the normal licenses require the driver to hold a driving license.

King Kalle!

He does not have support at the moment and he cant be in Latvia, if someone wants to support him, contact with him. Finland WRC list closes soon and probably he cant be there also, next rally for him is Rally Estonia and no next rally for this year (Junior WRC champ 22).

Yep, now Neuville might have an opportunity to become WRC 1 champion. For 2024 they have arranged a new points system just to favor him. If you look up his previous placings over the years, the only reasonable chance was probably with a brand new "Neuville system", because with the "old" it has been proven that he doesn't make it all the way to the first WRC1 champion.

@@larszenthio1012 u are right . Its time he delivers & benefits from this new system . I wish we would be able to see him drive a Toyota , just for one season before he retires .

@@larszenthio1012 funny thing to say when new point system saves Tanak more so far.

@@ShavoSoaDer They probably took that into account when they figured out the new points system, but it's always a risk. By the way, Tänak has already won once, which shows that he is a bit faster than Neuville, then in the old way of counting points.

@@larszenthio1012 Tanak won in 2019, doesn't mean he must be better in 2024. New point system is same for everyone, drivers needs to adapt.

Us P bass guys tend to like Toyotas!

@@Buffalobulltofta haha, nice you notice the bass! That´s a Jazz Bass, but Japanese;-) ! Love my P bass to ofcourse! Grts fellow bassplayer and rally enthousiast! ! Edit: on second reading, I think this one might´ve went over my head... .

@@phonetics8272 haha yeah man, it was just a J vs P/Hyundai vs Toyota joke, bass and rally is the stuff and we are all united!

Poland is better. Roads and infrastructure for fans and teams

Which one? The deer?

Rally is always about “should have “ isn’t it

Championship is a championship, point system is same for everyone and Kalle is not perfect, he crashed in Sweden and Portugal

Seb can beat all in reverse gear🎳🛞

He has not won it yet, i think Tänak and Evans are also capable to win drivers title this year.

he's done well but he hasn't driven a championship drive, only Kalle and Ogier have so far, and they're both part timers

But coming as runner up five times is not a mean achievement. He's capable of winning the title this year..

Sunday pace alone doesnt mean it would been "easy" weekend. Ofc he got the best tires on sunday because before sunday he got nothing to win and on sunday nothing to lose. But he will be very fast in Latvia and Finland too.

@@3M46DN1M Look s2 times before deer hit. He was attack mode first km. Sunday he was first (cleaning roads) and you are sayng he had best tires is kinda meh :)

It has been same with Rovanperä and Ogier past years. Ogier got many times better friday because the starting position. Didn't bother Kalle and took champions nevertheless. Toyota had chances to give couple of more wins for Rovanperä.

Yes but Evans always has punctures, Kalle hardly never. Theres something else than luck.

​@@aanttila867 this

@@aanttila867 , I think Kalle's father told him as a teenager, that I won't buy you new tires each week, so you just learn to save them and not to driving into all shit on the road.

Who was it who said (making money) that - the more I work the more good luck I have. Most punctures come, I am told, when the car is a bit off the road.

Evans and Mikkelsen were already behind.

We have a massive crowd control issue in Poland - a few stages had to cancelled because some people would gather in unsafe places or trespass onto the track itself
