Rovanpera feels "ready" for WRC comeback in Sweden
The reigning world champion, Kalle Rovanpera, is expected to compete in at least six rallies for Toyota this year, starting with Sweden next week. He won the Sweden rally in 2022 on his way to his first world title. Rovanpera participated in the Arctic Lapland Rally in Finland last weekend to prepare for Sweden’s snow stages. He led the rally by almost a minute before a technical issue prevented him from winning. Despite this setback, Rovanpera feels ready to challenge for victory in Sweden, especially with a lower starting position. The Arctic Lapland Rally helped him define the car’s set-up for the snow-covered roads in Sweden, which is crucial for such a fast rally where tire management is important.
