Kalle Rovanperä. This season, he has been nothing short of phenomenal. 3 WRC wins in a row. 3 different surfaces and leading the World Rally Championship by 46 points.
So how has he managed to achieve this feat?
SWEDEN
The frozen roads of Sweden and having grown up driving on snow, Kalle was expected to perform well. But he’d struggled to find a rhythm with his Toyota Yaris at Round One in Monte Carlo, plus he would have to open the road: An unenviable position on snow that generally means matching the pace of those behind is out of the question.
But, off the bat he looked comfortable on the snow and ice.
Kalle took full advantage.
In the afternoon, when the roads had become more rutted he’d dropped to 5th, but he showed surprising maturity - he remained calm, stayed out of trouble and earned himself a good road position for the following days.
But could he make it count?
He simply showed formidable pace, climbing the leaderboard to take his first win of the year.
Rallying on the ice and snow you grew up on is one thing, but the less-familiar sealed surface of Croatia is an altogether different proposition. And his form here the previous year had been less than stellar…
CROATIA
As championship leader, Rovanperä opened the road in a Croatia beset by miserable weather. His position was favourable, but had he learned from his off the year before?
The short answer? Yes. While others were picking up punctures left, right and centre, Kalle drove with the mindset of a seasoned World Champion.
Clearly in sync with his Yaris, he focused on keeping it clean, avoiding big cuts and headed into Saturday with a commanding lead of over a minute.
When the puncture did finally come, it allowed Ott Tänak back into the fight.
It came down to the final test, and Rovanperä drove probably the best stage of his life. On arguably the wrong tyre he put it all on the line and put Tanak in his place, an undisputed rallying masterclass to win the Powerstage, and the Rally itself.
But the next rally could prove to be his toughest test yet…
PORTUGAL
Rally Portugal.
It’s every rally driver’s worst nightmare.
It is the kind of obstacle that only World Champions like Sebastiens Ogier and Loeb were able to overcome.
Unsurprisingly, Kalle lay back in 10th after the first gravel stage. But, once again, the young Finn showed maturity beyond his years and stuck to his game plan.
Not the fastest but enough to keep in touch with those ahead of him so if they ran in trouble he would be waiting.
He was letting the other drivers shoulder the pressure of needing to push.
Which can cause things to unravel…
Rovanpera steadily climbed the leaderboard to find himself lying second overall after the first day of competition. That gave him a strong road position for Day Two, he was now a real contender for the win.
The long stages of Saturday, he managed his tires well so by the penultimate stage he could take full advantage of the life left in them when tackling the long, now wet Amarante 2 stage.
The remainder of the weekend turned into a straight fight, this time with team-mate Elfyn Evans
3 consecutive wins, 3 different surfaces.
So, take one fast Finnish driver, add a sorted Toyota Yaris, mix in a mature mindset and an unbreakable ability to cope with pressure, and you go a long way to understanding why Kalle Rovanperä is untouchable right now.
And, regardless of how 2022 pans out for him, Rovanperä’s already demonstrated that he is a true rallying ATV.

Rovanpera will be a multiple world champion in the years to come, and join the likes of Sebastien Loeb and Sebastien Ogier.
We're not gonna argue 😉
at least his name isnt sebestian :)
@@fanaticjay3825 maybe he should change his name to sebastian kalle just for giggles :D
@@xwaltranx OR hear me out got wild idea, how about Sebastian Rovanperä as Rovanperä is his last name... 🤔
@@NobeRobe Or just Sebastian Sebastian?
I always thought Harri was a great driver with huge potential, however his kid is really something special!! Well done Kalle, the championship is yours if you want it 🏆
Rally drivers are on another level. Balls of steel and insane skill. Takes a lot of courage to do it.
It has been a while since Finland produced a phenomenal rally driver, as it did so frequently in the past, but when it happened it was a very special one.
He's definitely on his way to rally greatness, I'm glad I'm gonna get to see it happen. Seen the 2 sebs, it's kalles turn now.
Rovanperä, Verstappen, Quartararo... this batch of kids is most impressive.
I like both of ya'lls list
I remember watching Kale as an 8 year old kid in a full blown rally car that Harri built for him, I was thinking either he's gonna kill himself in a crash before he even goes pro or he's gonna become an inhumane driver with alien talent. Yeah, I think we're witnessing the latter, he's just 21!!! He has 9 years to get to the same age at which both Sebs started dominating WRC. Just think about that ...
He has shown so much potential and he is so down to earth that he simply does exactly what is needed at each moment without a hesitation :) As a finn I'm really proud of Kalle.
Rovanperä will be the king of 2022 rally 👑
A most talented driver and World Champion.. !
Bravo Kalle. Cape Town South Africa
He’s only 21 and looking good for the title. Incredible driver with an incredible future ahead.
The camera lens cracked from the Yaris launch 1:46
🤣
I had to relook twice
I hope no boulders landed on the cameraman face

Rovanpera and Toyota will sweep WC2022
Дечко је чудо,гледао сам га као клинца од10 год шта је радио са колима.

The Sisu very strong with Him is! ✨
Amazing ... wonderkid
fantastic driver love watching him
He’s absolutely stormed the tracks of wrc over the past few years, such great talent, I’ve loved watching him, it’s a shame we won’t see him for the full season this year but he’ll be back in 2025
that Yaris is a weapon
Rovanpera é de outro mundo 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Abraço desde Aveiro 🇵🇹
Eager to see him on Safari....
I miss WRC! Worlds Most Dangerous but extremely exciting motor sports in the WORLD! 😍
Welcome back!
Make that 4!
Kalle is king for many many years.
Watching a snow stage in spring 😀
amazing how young he is. hes only 22 and driving better than elders.
He's awesome. He was groomed from a young age just like Verstappen
To be fair pretty much every high level driver has been driving since they were small small kids. Before Verstappen was in F1 he battled the likes of Leclerc and the other young F1 drivers in Karting. By the time they're around 25 they've been driving competitively for like over 15 years
Hamilton had a story of how his father used to see when the fastest driver of each circuit would break coming into a corner and then he'd stand at that spot for Lewis so he would learn to break as late as possible as a little kid. I think every high level driver has similar stories.
Oof for that broken camera lens at 1:48
Nice one kalle 💚🇵🇰
👍👍👍👍👍
With the yellow sunglasses
This young Men are amazing..Tanăk need better car
Toyota made a monster

1:47 feel sorry for the lens or whatever was covering it
Ensin kuuntelin, että mikä hiton rowanberry? Sitten myöhemmin vasta valkeni...
As a Finn, it hurst when you pronounce Kalle as Kale. Double consonants should be pronounced as two separate syllables: Kal-leh
Thank you Miko!
@@tommisalo8615 I see what you did there :D

IN A BLOODY PRIUS
It's a YARIS.
👏👏👏👏🎊☘️🛡️🤘🇵🇹🏁🥇
Kalle haven't still found his instinct of self preservation... So young, so innocent until he finds out what he's doing is absolutely mental! That might still take 15years or so... Let's enjoy before he gets into his senses!
Kalle Rovanperä has born with a steering wheel in his hand 🏆🎉👍😁 just like his father ♥️
Rally car drivers are the most talented drivers when compared to any other racing series.
1:45 he launched so hard he threw rocks and broke the camera lense 🤯
1:40 - did i read that right? 180kph through the forests, at night, sideways....... jesus christ
subaru yaris
Toyota de merde 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
Jealous
@@GodBimmer moi jaloux . Tu rigoles. La meilleure voiture n'es plus là. VW Polo r WRC d'as auto . Ça cette une voiture
No. GR is Best WRC 2022 car and package. Period.
Why?... Racers know it which kind of vehicle is the best..... If Toyota is not the best why it would be in that kind of rallies or racings.... I think every kind of brand vehicle is the best which are used in those kind of racings or rallies....
@@alexandrenecker7508 Even a car manufacturer in the middle of nowhere like hyundai can win over VW, what are you proud of ?
