    Good to see Atkinson is competing in 2009, can't wait to see completely smashed up C4's.
    In anticipation of the next corner...

    Or maybe its the same for Wilson if Petter drives for Ford or not.

    Hold on a minute.Petter was telling in all his latest words that he wants a car that will be able to challenge for victory,which means Ford or Citroen.So,with all the places locked in the French team,the only remaining solution is Ford.Malcolm for sure feels a little bit uncomfortable with Chris in Citroen.Petter,I think,is the best option at the moment...

    Petter and Subaru 2009

But is there really so deep disagreement with Malcolm Wilson that Petter can't try Ford-option.

    I beleive Petter is under contract with Subaru for 2009, hence neither Ford nor Citroen are possible. I think I read somewhere that his salary from Subaru for 2009 is 5 MEUR.

    I think that as soon as Subaru walked away their contracts will have been finished, I don't know whether they will still have to have been paid or not.

    I think looking at the fact that Henning and Gigi were battling for podium positions quite a lot shows that Petter could do better in the same car, I really hope that he can work something out even if it means paying for a full drive to give him one last chance in 2009.....

    Atkinson is a solid driver. Unless he does a Duval you will not see piles of crashed Citroen's.
    Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.

    And unless he is out on more than one event there is only one at most you could see. I really hope not, but Ireland is an ultra tricky event at the best of times...

    Actually, he also said it has to be a subaRust, so he still haven't learned anything... Unless he's planning to race a cusco impreza in jgtc until his contract runs out? At least that's a Subaru capable of winning. And I guess he could need a years worth of practice on asphalt if he wants to be champion again.
