    Uffff, how many times has he done this already?? I would rather see him in ERC and for Skoda to hire a young Czech driver for the home championship (Cerny?)

    So maybe Kopecky in Czech championship and some few rallies ERC? Lappi WRC2 - and some rallies ERC - or WRC2 only? What about MERC? No regular Skoda driver in ERC next year? So many questions ...

    As I have heard, Skoda wanted to send Sepp Wiegand to MERC, but Skoda Deutschland was not interested...

    If Skoda wanted him there why don't they send him themselves, why have to rely on a national arm of Skoda? They didn't send Kopecky or Lappi to APRC with a European national importer, they sent them to the MRF team, right?

    Because they don't want to pay for it I guess.

    Realistically he was only in the works team because of the support of Skoda Deutschland. I agree with Mirek though, why would Skoda DE want to send him to a completely different territory?

    Maybe he could go to APRC if MRF want to pay?

    Maybe Lappi to WRC2 and Kopecky + 1 new one in ERC would be a good solution?
    I think there should be also some surprise...

    So, in an ideal world ...

    Skoda France support Bouffier, Skoda UK support Breen and Skoda Belgium support Loix.

    I guess they will announce something when they present the Fabia R5.

    Skoda Belgium will indeed support Loix, but for BRC, I think they aren's so interested in it and probably don't have the funds for an ERC program.
