Let’s speed up with our Saaremaa special – #time4estonia
Did you know that stereotypically Estonians are thought to be very slow? Apart from one of the fastest rally drivers on earth – Ott Tänak. Although, it’s been told that this might be due to being slow at hitting the brakes.
RALLI = rally
Last year, Saaremaa-born Ott Tänak became the World Rally Champion with his co-driver Martin Järveoja, when competing in Toyota team.
The roads of Saaremaa have been Ott’s childhood playground and the island is widely known for its rally, which has taken place every October since 1974

WRC has described Ott as “Determined, intense and blisteringly quick,” adding “The Estonian lets his driving do the talking.” So let’s talk no more and watch Ott Tänak in action. Time to accelerate!
