2010 Cars, teams, drivers

why?

sure craig breen would be in with a better chance than him with the r3 development he has done

and anyway gould had a poor poor year in the brc with young guns like keith cronin ali fisher and to a lesser extent young thourburn way ahead and not forgetting craig and marty McCormack i would rate them ahead as well

In my view Breen is best young talent on the UK / Ireland scene at present. Cronnin etc are good but Breen's choice of contesting 3 championships (and winning 2 so far with the chance of winning a 3rd in Catalunya at the end of this month) can only put him further ahead of the other young guns. With his successful debut run in the development Fiesta R2 last weekend (4th) I'm sure Mr Wilson has plans for him.
Think Breen has his first run in a 4WD car this weekend so that will be interesting.

Kopecky certainly with Skoda, is Hanninen confirmed? Would imagine Meeke will be with Kronos next year. Think Wilks will stay with Proton. Would love to see PG out in anything.

Hänninen has a contract for the 2010 season.

[Mirek]

AFAIK Škoda hasn't decided yet which championship(s) they'll drive next season.

[bluuford]

He is from the Island claiming not to be a part of Europe !!


What about other good drivers not getting one of the 4 (!) factory drives in WRC ?

Can we see Galli back in IRC, or can Panizzi get a sponsor to pay for a season in IRC, and what about Duval, and also others not getting into WRC ?

Must be more fun driving in a championship where you are not beaten before SS1, because your car is a privat one.

Galli said that he better retires from rallying than goes to IRC. It was in one of his interviews.

[Barreis]

It's stupid that You have to pay for a drive..

[urabus-denoS2000]

Peugeot Benelux will maybe stop with Vouilloz and Loix and service one car for Neuville instead

This is a typical excuse from people who then it will affect their 'street cred' driving Super 2000 cars. They are up on 300bhp now, and 4 wheel drive, so whats the problem?
