He also told to Italian magazine Rallyemotion about various companies ready to enter the project, when will get green light from MG. The Manufacturer seems it will eventually have a works involvement starting 2015. This year they financed already 2 motorsport programmes... something around Asia, I guess.

And about the other MG projects, if I am correct, they will be competing (again) in BTCC on circuits.

They have been for a while - Triple Eight (the parent team of the extremely successful V8 Supercar team) have run Jason Plato for the past two years. They use the MG6, which probably would not be eligible to enter in the WRC, but an existing motorsport programme does not hurt the idea of a WRC entry.

Re: [WRC] News & rumours (part III)
Yes, I know. The point I was trying to make is that MG are supporting a motorsport programme in the BTCC. And if they are willing to do that, then they might be open to expanding that programme into the WRC. Certainly moreso than if Tamrazov just picked a manufacturer with no motorsport programmes. If he wants it to happen, he will need the support of the manufacturer. If I was looking to get a new car into the WRC, I know the first manufacturers I would go to are the ones that already compete in other categories.
