    No Duval in this years WRC?

    According to http://www.pitstoptv.be Francois Duval will not drive the Skoda Fabia WRC this year. The 4 Fabias First wanted to buy has been selled to Dutchman Eric Wevers. Maybe First can rent one from him?

    In wonder why First would need 4 Fabia's in the first place?

    Maybe they can buy a Ford Focus 04 WRC.

    I think First only wanted one Fabia(and to rent, not to buy), but Skoda sold all the Fabias(including the one that was awaiting that First sponsor Pyramid pay the Kopecky/Skoda team) to dutch driver Erik Wevers

    According to La Dernière Heure( http://www.dhnet.be )Erik Wevers would have threatened Skoda to put the affair on trial if he didn't receive the four Fabias he ordered

    And now apparently it's First Motorsport who could threatened them...

    No, First wanted four, according to the article

    First was van plan om de 4 (5?) Fabia’s WRC, die nog bij Skoda Motorsport stonden, met onderdelen aan te kopen.
    Or

    First intended to buy 4 (5?) Fabia’s WRC, which were still at Skoda Motorsport
