[WRC] News & rumours (part IV) 2016

[N.O.T]

Prokop tested the new wrc????????????????????????????????why????????????

because he has money and can buy things.

The one driver is a big sponsor of citroen and the other is just a customer of m-sport.The difference is huge.We also don't know if prokop will follow the next year's championship and if he do we don't know if fia will allow him to drive the new wrc generation.

There's no way the FIA won't allow Prokop into a car. I think it's a mix of headline-grabbing reporting and the FIA not having their sh*t together to actually outline the specific rules yet. Biggest problem will likely be car supply with teams like M-Sport going down to the wire on development.

Prokop has the r5 Fiesta, GT3 mercedes and the T1 Ford truck and has expressed an interest in World Rallycross. He finished 6th in Baja Poland with Ilka Minor. WRC class might not be in his program for 2017.

Prokop own Fiesta WRC, not R5.

Why shouldn't they use him? He'd be good for a comparison from the previous car.

Testing at this stage is not about outright speed.

plus you can test things like how the car behaves under too much weight stress, how much weight you need to bottom out the suspension and other fun stuff.

[Andre Oliveira]

Prokop is very good driver.

[N.O.T]

Prokop is very good driver.

of course he is a very good driver, but not a WRC driver.
