Ready, Set, Go! WRC 2023 Rally Estonia Betting Analysis
Kalle Rovanperä
Current Championship leader Kalle Rovanperä’s two consecutive Rally Estonia wins make him a candidate to win regardless of his current form. However, Rovanperä’s current form is excellent, scoring three straight podium finishes, including one rally win.
Finishing second in Kenya continued Rovaperä’s season-long top-five finishing steak, making it seven for seven this season. Despite the long odds, Rovanperä is a lock to finish in the top five and add to your bankroll unless he suffers a retirement.
Elfyn Evans
Toyota’s Elfyn Evans is currently second in the drivers’ standings, having finished in the top five in six of seven Rallies this season. Evans finished third in Kenya, his third podium of the season, all coming in the last five rallies.
In 2022, Evans finished second overall and second in the power stage, helping make him one of our picks to win his first Rally Estonia and second race of the season.
Ott Tänak
Ott Tänak is the most successful Rally Driver in Estonia and must be one of your picks to finish in the top five this weekend. However, Tänak is not having a great season, with one rally win, two podiums, and four top-five finishes.
Despite having two consecutive sub-fifth place finishes, Tänak has finished in the top two in the last two power stages.
Thierry Neuville
Thierry Neuville was disqualified from Kenya but is listed as an entrant in Estonia. Neuville has five top-five finishes in the six rallies he’s raced this season, having one rally win and four total podiums this season.
Esapekka Lappi
Esapekka Lappi finished sixth in the 2022 Rally Estonia and has snuck into our top five. Although Lappi only has three top-five finishes this season, all three were podium finishes in the last four races.
