    I don't know who is in charge of the Fiesta used by Oreca now but for next season Oreca shall switch to Fabias using cars from 2C (as far as I read somewhere). Since Oreca has been working closely with Škoda since 2008 it sounds very logical. Recently Oreca is responsible for building and maintenance of all customer Fabia R5 engines. 2C on the other hand has been also working closely with Michelin providing cars for their tyre testing. Unfortunately I don't know any more details about the actual relationship of Oreca and 2C.

    His first plan is to stay with Oreca, but he has a clause to leave for an official team. (according AutoHebdo)

    @Manthey : 2C is a french team, who owes the Fabia R5 which will be runned by Oreca.
    They runned Camilli at Monte too.

    Works ones are completed and serviced by the works team itself but they have very limited capacity to take care of the whole customer program.

    thanks. so can I say that Oreca doesn't have the Fabia but is in charge to run the cars given his knowhow about the engine? Do you know if the car's setup is provided by 2C or Oreca?

    I think 2C just "give" them the cars, and Oreca is doing what they want with the setup.

    Okay so far this seems to be the list:

    Nasser Al-Attiyah
    Abdulaziz Al-Kuwari (we think)
    Esapekka Lappi
    Pontus Tidemand
    Teemu Suninen
    Eric Camilli
    Armin Kremer
    Nicolas Fuchs
    Eyvind Brynildsen (we think)
    Karl Kruuda (we think)
    Sander Parn
    Marius Aasen
    Quentin Gilbert
    M-Sport Factory entry TBC

    Looks good to me, even at this early stage!
