Yeah sure they did........

At least Msport can get the livery looking good.

If Lappi is getting relegated to a part time season with Hyundai (I hope not for his sake), could Msport tempt him? Ofcourse he had a horrible time at msport a few years ago, but I dont see a better...

"Best car theyve ever built" -Wilson

"But but...., other teams have had some reliability issues toooooo" - Millener

An absolutely disgraceful two years for msport. Its a real shame for the wrc...

Just saw a split second clip of the Tanak retirement. What's he meant to do? Tinpot reliability.
The only criticism I could give him, was if he went against engineering advice and lowered the car...

Village team run by a village idiot. It's sad for the sport.
It's got to the point it's hardly worth criticising Millener anymore, he is so clearly out of his depth whether it comes to...

Yep, back to back good results for Tanak in Estonia and Finland needed. Think he needs a win in at least one of them.

Once again this is Rich deflecting. Pointing at all the other teams problems is fine, but it comes across like his head is in the sand and he's in denial. The car isn't good enough, Tanak isn't happy...

Waing for FastEddie to comment on how msport are plucky underdogs and Ford dont support them enough, so all these issues are excusable ;). Reality is they have built a tinpot, brittle Puma and...

Millener is refusing to acknowledge in that interview that reliability has been a big issue since they launched the rally1 car. Tanak will be "sniping" for the rest of the season if they can't get on...

All resources put into Tanak, only for the tinpot car to fail him anyway.....

It is great news, agreed.
You do always like to portray things like it's little old Msport out on their own though.
Ford and Red Bull are also involved in this "Tanak championship project"....

Loubet might genuinely have proper potential though.

So has the money run out? Or he's finally realised he isn't ever going to be competing at the front?


Or Toyota partial campaign ?

I think Greensmith funds his whole campaign, it isn't even like he brings some partners or partial payment. He effectively does what someone like Bertelli did. So if he can't pay for the car he won't...

That's true. A good team mate can take pts off other championship rivals, and be used in extreme cases to gift positions to your lead driver. However the best we can hope for at Msport is Loeb does...

2-5m a year for Tanak is peanuts for Ford regardless of what job losses have occurred in other areas of their company. They invested more than Msport fans like to believe in this car, it was a fully...

Why would Tanak leave Hyundai for Msport? That would almost be a worse decision than leaving Toyota for Hyundai.

Hyundai have ramped up development, have won 5 rallies this year and Msports...

They've just confirmed they won't be at Dakar.

Lack of spare parts or supply of parts according to Wilson

I genuinely have a feeling Fourmaux has something. Maybe the evidence and facts suggest otherwise, but I think he can be a success (not sure whether that's champion level, rally winner level or...

"Best result to date" would suggest that's the best current result on tarmac for C3, which ofcourse it isn't with Meeke and Loeb wins.

If you read what I wrote, I never once said Mikkelsen had...

When was the last time Breen drove in Sardinia, or did a technical gravel rally as slow as this?! 2017/18? How are Msport giving their lead driver a chance without a pre event test on the island.
...

That's stretching though, Meeke was leading Corsica until his engine blew and won in Spain because of tarmac performance.

I wouldn't say Mikkelsen did good in the Citroen. He was god awful in Sardinia with an amazing road position, didn't do well in Poland (which was meant to be his best rally), but he did very well in...
