WRC Greece: Five things you may have missed
1. Despite inheriting the rally lead, Kalle Rovanpera’s victory in the Acropolis Rally was well-deserved, with eight stage wins and no punctures or mechanical issues. He also had a lucky moment when he almost toppled his car on a bump caused by water runoff, but he managed to recover and win the stage. Rovanpera’s resilience and skill were on full display throughout the event.
2. The battle for the 2023 World Rally Championship has become a two-horse race between Rovanpera and his Toyota teammate Elfyn Evans. Thierry Neuville of Hyundai ruled himself out of contention after suffering suspension failure due to hitting a hole. Neuville’s title hopes now seem impossible, as he is 66 points behind Rovanpera with only 90 points remaining in the season.
3. The organizers of the Acropolis Rally went above and beyond to ensure the event could take place despite the challenges posed by Storm Daniel. Many had doubts about whether the rally would happen at all, but the organizers managed to overcome the obstacles and successfully stage the race.
