    Given how much official Skoda accounts were re-tweeting Veiby over the weekend i'd say it looks almost certain now that the drive is his.

    He set some decent times in Spain to be fair.

    Would be fantastic if Lappi, Suninen and Tidemand could have found seats, then Skoda could promote Sirmacis and Veiby. That would be a very exciting team. Unfortunately I fear Pontus will not land anywhere. Another year in WRC2 feels like a backwards step. He's been in that championship as long as anyone.

    Finland crash really hurt his chances I think.

    Tidemand hinted in Spain he would stay with Skoda.

    He's a good driver, but maybe not quite as fast as Lappi on gravel and not quite as fast as Kopecky on tarmac.

    I agree! I hope a more competitive ERC in 2017 than 2016...

    Bad news for Ypres Rally too... I don't believe in TER. There has been multiple attempts to create something similar, none was successful...
