2012 Silly Season - WRC

[rallyfiend]

No sponsors needed Mini WRT: Sordo, Meeke

From what I hear, Prodrive need to find a sponsor sharpish or there may not be a programme next year at all. They very much run on the model of M-Sport and receive very little direct support from BMW.
Combined with the shambolic Aston Martin prorgramme, all of Prodrive is very much in need of fresh investment.

2012
Citroen: Loeb,Hirvonen
Ford : Ogier, Latvala
Mini: Meeke, Sordo
VW: too many to say
2013
Citroen: Loeb Hirvonen
Ford: Ogier,?
mini: Sordo,?
VW: Latvala,?

Next year certain as above(if someone doesn`t believe this than save this and put it on display after everything is confirmed...;-)), and also Latvala to VW 2013 already signed. But for 2013 lots of other open places!

[N.O.T]

what about 2027 ?

[ProRally]

Prokop would run Fiesta WRC with his own team, not part of the M-Sport set up....

Really, and are you the only person on the planet who knows this? Do you have any links from viable sources to back this up?
