DMACK negociating with all teams as well as M-Sport for 2018 supply:

MN: 'Cormack wouldn’t be drawn on precise details of any negotiations with Hyundai, Toyota or Citroen, but said: “We know we’re...

It's much bigger than just here... all over social media, blogs, podcasts, as well as articles in the motorsport press.

All this endless 2018 speculation...

I wonder if some WRC Teams leave their announcements to the last minute as they are getting all this 'free publicity' of people discussing them continuously.

There has been a real change in Evans in the last 18 months.

Winning rallies in the BRC in 2016 (and the Title) was a real booster. Plus a maturity with age has made a huge difference. He is very...

We had exactly the same situation when Tanak ran the DMACK's (and he didnt win with them).

He hasnt done too badly since going to the Michelins...

I have to admit that Evans had advantage's on Rally GB - namely DMACK's & competing on his home stages - but he absolutely maximised them.

He was consistently fast, made no mistakes in very...

Looks like I met him as a WRC driver just in time...

Really nice guy, shame he never got where his early potential was promising.

He crashed out 15 mins later...

Missed the point completely. If Matton had anything about him he'd be insisting on the testing being held in the right place. Citroen will never be successful again with this current weak management.

5. Citroen tested for Wales Rally GB in France, on dry dusty gravel. Matton: 'It's very expensive to test in Welsh forests...'

He's a a joke.

Looks to me like Ogier is just waiting on Ford's decision now on whether he continues (at MSport). If no Ford support, he'll retire.

Maybe they are going to be the big sponsor...

Meeke's comments on Citroen's lack of local prep for GB tells a lot... the money isnt there.

Tony Simpson presenter on Absolute Rally saying he has it on good authority that Ogier IS staying at M-Sport for 2018.

Because if they can keep Ogier they wont be able to afford another top driver, so their Championship chances will be low.

My guess is Ogier will stay and M-Sport will centre on him for the 2018 Driver's title.

They wont worry about the Manu's after winning this year.

I dont think we need to worry about Hayden now...

Because although it made sense for him financially, it didnt car-wise. He may yet live to regret leaving the winning Team.

Tanak to Toyota was the worst kept secret.

But now it's confirmed it surely cant be long now til we find out the the big one - Ogier's situation.

No Hyundai for Ogier in 2018...

There have been many good talents emerge in the ERC in the last few years but finance is almost always the dictator of their future career.

My favourite was Ralfs Sirmacis - he showed real speed...

Maybe this ?

For once I agree with Colin Clark, it would be a big gamble by Tanak adapting to a new car & team.

Staying at M-Sport in a car & team he knows so well could be his best chance of ever winning the...

Hearing there's a story in Motoring News suggesting Ogier will either stay at M-Sport or retire..

They report that the French media say Citroen dont have the budget for him and a Hyundai offer has...
