Is this the first time they've run that rear bumper?

And six days after everyone fell out about it - Autosport finally publish the Tom Fowler quotes about the new car.

I think the huge aero focus is particularly interesting - http://www.autosport.com/news/report...ith-wrc-design

2015 shape car, with 2017 spec inside. I told you. (Not you Simmi)

6 days because they lead with the interview in Motorsport News, a paid physical paper from the same group. Then, if you want it for free, you wait for the associated Autosport article.

Yep well aware of that I subscribe to both. Still not sure six days is optimal. Normally you struggle to get hold of MN in the UK after a few days. The two copies on sale in each place get sold.

so Mäkinen said the decision for drivers is likely to happen after germany and now when Lappi has admitted that he was in factory and is in talks with them...

My guess is Tänak/Lappi and Hänninen will join them whenever the third car is ready.

Tanak makes perfect sense considering Tommi said he wasn't necessarily looking for solid finishes next year, and instead wanted to find a driver who would drive the car to the absolute maximum to find out just how fast it is. Suggested he'd rather have a driver winning stages even if it ended in crashes, than signing a driver who couldn't find the true limit of the car

the info i have got is Tänak is very close and maybe even had already been signed if one other guy had already decided where he wants to be next year.
