BREAKING NEWS: Rovanpera jr is new 2022 World Rally champion

Hi, friends!

Finnish youngster Kalle Rovanpera is driver with the biggest number of wins this season - six - and because he had the best technique in his Toyota, that was a perfect winning combo for 2022.

Estonian Ott Tanak woke up too late but with the three wins out of three rallies, Rovanpera's hands started to shake a little bit.

But Toyota guys didn't start to worry at all. They only returned eight-time WRC champion Seb Ogier to the team for last three rallies and they started to feel more secure that moment.

I would say that Ogier is the one who helped Rovanpera this weekend at New Zealand to win his first title and to become a youngest WRC champion ever, at the age of 22. His father Hari was really proud after that happened and it was with reason - you don't havr your son becoming a champ every day.

In the end Ott Tanak finished 3rd overall, in front of his team-mates from Hyundai - Thierry Neuville and Oliver Solberg. Next event is this month in Catalunya, Spain. And the last rally of the season is in Japan where guys from Toyota will celebrate, with manufacturer's in the bag or without.

Let the best win - as always..
