🗣 “I’m pretty aware of some of the stuff that is going on but it is not always easy to just translate that” Toyota’s Elfyn Evans says it’s “not always easy' to translate some of the techniques that have helped Kalle Rovanpera excel in the WRC
Toyota’s Elfyn Evans says it’s “not always easy" to translate some of the techniques that have helped Kalle Rovanpera excel in the World Rally Championship this season.Evans started the season among the favourites to challenge for the WRC title after finishing runner-up to Sebastien Ogier for the previous two campaigns, but this year the Welshman has been unable to defeat Toyota team-mate Rovanpera in the Rally1 hybrid cars.
Evans pushed Rovanpera close in Sweden prior to crashing out on the final day, and led the Finn in the Portugal, Kenya and Estonia rounds before going on to finish second behind his stablemate. “I’m pretty aware of some of the stuff that is going on but it is not always easy to just translate that.” After scoring three second place finishes in the last four events Evans says his confidence is building after a difficult start to the year, but is fully expecting a tough task to pull off a second consecutive Rally Finland win, in order to open his account for the year.
