Two-time world rally champion Kalle Rovanpera has made a last-minute trip to replace fellow Toyota part-time driver Sebastien Ogier on Rally Poland
Kalle Rovanpera expects to face a “big challenge” to prepare for Rally Poland after receiving a last-minute call up to replace Sebastien Ogier while he was repairing his jet ski.
“The team made the call for us to come here and of course myself and Jonne were not prepared at all, so it was not an easy decision to come here. “But of course we want to help the team as much as we can with the team points; they are crucial this year, so hopefully we can do that.
