His first win of 2022 was on the famous ice- and snow-covered roads at Rally Sweden, and we’re riding on board with his imperious run through the Umeå Sprint on the first night of the event. It’s a breathless four-minute night-time blast through Swedish forest that Rovanperä absolutely nails with calm precision and scarcely believable speed. Even as his car twitches horribly under braking on the treacherous surface, he somehow manages to keep the car where he wants it and carry all possible momentum through the corners.
This is as close to perfection as it gets, and it’s footage like this that evidences exactly how good Rovanperä is. If he keeps this up and, heaven forbid, gets even better with experience, this is guy is going to absolutely dominate the WRC for the foreseeable future.
