With two Barum Czech Rally Zlín‍ starts to his name, Itu conceded there’s⁢ plenty still⁤ to learn.”We’ve only done it once together and I’ve done Barum once more but it was in Junior⁢ ERC 10 years ⁣ago so we don’t have a lot‍ of experience,”⁤ Itu said. “I also ⁤don’t think we have most of the notes so we’ll need to‍ write everything from scratch.‍ It’s going to be difficult but I’m hoping for surprise weather, I think that’s when the lack of experience will get⁤ equalised,⁣ let’s say, by difficult conditions.”
