Sesks takes first place in the youth class with 68 points, but Christenson has ten less. Finn Pajari scored four points less. Christenson withdrew from the Estonia stage, so he will not be considered if he finishes in the Monza Rally.
In Italy, rally drivers are surprised by the snow, so athletes are allowed to use winter tires. JWRC class riders are allowed to use six sets of tires.
In the JWRC class, all athletes start with Ford Fiesta vehicles.
In the first leg of the season JWRC, Sesks and Francis in Sweden took second place, yielding only to Christenson, but in the second leg in Estonia they took Latvia’s first victory in this class. In the previous stage in Sardinia, the Sesque finished third.
