Apparently there were some shenanigans in Riga during the WRX round there but Ekström pretends to be innocent.

hahaha good marketing. Hope it goes well... and convince EKS to race AUDIs in 2018 not 3 more dominant-boring Costumer Polos like PSRX hehe

I wonder how close Ekström would be to Kristoffersson if Ekström had done all rounds. JK would still likely be in the lead but Ekström would probably not have been that far behind.

A lot closer than he should be, given the speed of the VW.

Some good races yesterday, although a bit of bumper cars sorted a lot of it. Nice to see a race weekend that VW didn't dominate.

could this be VW's e-Golf for that Electric GRC Class for 2018?

Two e-Golfs, two Peugeot/STARD... I believe OMSE could build two cars anytime pretty fast too....
I dont think its IMPOSSIBLE to see this class really happening in 2018.

[MrJan]

I think it's unlikely that anything will be racing as a proper class in 2018, but 2019 might work.

Peugeot and Loeb back in 2018, nice - https://www.motorsport-news.co.uk/ne...ent-with-loeb/

Increased Peugeot involved from a technical side too to tackle VW too.

But "studying the sports management system implemented by the Hansen family since 2014" - What the heck does that mean?

But, Ford are quitting. Damn https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnVWinRg1es

"To continue in WRX would have required the development of a new race car."

Ken Block too confirming that he'll be going back to rallying (no specified series) and doing some Gymkhana GRID races -
whatever they are?
