And accept that it's going to take 50 or more events to become GOOD.

Data point: I can list 52 events that Block has competed at in the US alone.

... In modern supposedly well-built AWD cars, and he's still not good-good. IMO that sorta proves my point, which is that you have to do 50 or more events in a non-turbo non-AWD car.

Disclaimer: I fully acknowledge and accept that he's most likely a better or at least more ballsy driver than I am :-).

How do you define 'good' then?

Finish (consistently) higher among the other WRC drivers... and with focus on actually finishing....

I know that he's new in WRC, but he's been driving many events in what I would assume is somewhat similar cars, so I would expect more.
