You make some good points there. Compare Larsson to the other two S1s - he has more speed and then the racecraft to exploit it. Going to be interesting to see how it translates into a full WRX field.
The rainy weather seemed to even the field somewhat with regards to car specs and outright performance. Johan was excellent, but at the same time he is so good you almost take it for granted. He's doing things, like bailing from the joker in the finals, that none of the others even considered trying. If the Polo is anywhere near reliable and on pace, he's going to be right there.
But for me, seeing Oliver's speed and calm driving in the DS3 was the highlight of the weekend. He also comes off so much better on camera now than just a short while back - I could have sworn he must have been doing WRX this for years and years already.
The Subaru STI has been homologated for WRX in 2021 season. I think they should give Oliver one. Fingers crossed. Solbergs have done well in blue and gold before!
