In Motorsport News there was a story with Malcolm Wilson saying Elfyn won't be dropped from Ford. And I read on to see that he's only referring to the final three rounds of 2015. Zero mention of next year.

"I've told him [Evans] not to not listen to any of this bollocks going about that he's going to be dropped. He's not. I can guarantee that he will be in the car for the last three rallies of the season. But we've got to see some changes. It's a good job that we've had Ott here, so we've been able to see what the car is capable of."

Malcolm is the only one talking bollocks here. The new car doesn't seem to be capable of fuck all, except very distant 5th and 6th places.

When was the last time Fiesta was capable?

When was the last time Fiesta was capable?

Poland.

[Mariusz]

In Poland it was more Tanak who was driving like crazy and taking a lot if risks than Fiesta being so great. Unless you mean that Fiesta was helping him by disabling his rear brakes so Tanak could go faster

[EstWRC]

Spot on Mariusz, he admitted himself he took a lot risks and you can see it from the videos in youtube and also in WRC+ onboards.

i think all the line-ups will stay the same, some movements in Hyundai with Paddon going to mainteam and maybe Lefebvre to Citroen but i doubt it.

[Toyoda]

Kinda surprised Ott would even be considered to loose his seat, He is doing as well as Paddon, which is okish, not great but improving so for sure he will stay. Paddons season has not been that great either. Plenty of 0 point finishes. But improving slowly. Shown pace finally, which is great.
I could see Ostberg in Ford for Evans if outted by Citroen but its more likely there will be no changes.
The question for me is, will Paddon drive in one of the two Hyundai's in Monte, he has never done it, but he said Hyundai wanted him to do it next year in an interview at Finland, but surely Sordo would be a better option?
