How will Rovanpera become 2022 WRC Champion in Belgium?

Kalle Rovanpera is heading to Ypres Rally with a big-point advantage over his rivals on the drivers' championship and it is possible for him to become 2022 World Rally Driver Champion this weekend in Belgium. But how will this happen?

The Toyota driver has a 94-point and 95-point advantage over Ott Tanak and Thierry Neuville on drivers' championship respectively.

What Rovanpera must do is to score at least 26 and 25 points in comparison with Tanak and Neuville respectively which means that the Toyota driver must definitely win in Ypres.
