But, you cant spend all year doing that and he has a raft of sponsors to keep happy, hence he will try anything that gives them exposure.

As you say he's great at promoting himself - as a result he's also got enough cash to go and play in the WRC so why not? I think he's well aware of his limitations and the fact that he's never going to be a top rally driver - he just enjoys it and can afford to compete at the top level. There are worse ways to spend your money!
