Guys, thanks for finding the videos and all your comments. Especially the last video (above) is very impressive and leaves me speachless. I had no idea he was so talented

Thruth is without him Belgian rally scene will be much more weaker, he also helps quite a few drivers financially...

Not only Belgian. I think Bergkvist would be sitting at home without the support of Serderidis. Rallying for him is his hobby, and clearly he doesn't have a lot of talent as a driver, but you must respect him for how he helps the sport by also supporting other drivers who do have the talent. Don't forget that people who got the luck and skills to become a professional rally driver were once supported by a guy like Serderidis.

That aside I don't think it's very clever to let him start just before the first R5 cars...

I do have respect for him, he does a lot for the rallying in Belgium for sure

Well that's one way of putting it..

Autosport:
"The new WRC Trophy for the previous generation machines had only one registered entry on the Monte, where Jourdan Serderidis drove a Citroen.
The category will double in size for Sweden, as regular privateers Valeriy Gorban (Mini JCW WRC) and Lorenzo Bertelli (Ford Fiesta WRC) return."

Two entrants. Wow.

I wonder if Ford had been back as a factory team (using M-Sport) would they be selling 2017 Fiesta's to privateers ?
If not then the WRC Trophy might have worked with the privateers all using the 2016 cars as intended.

As it is, M-Sport selling 2017 WRC's has finished the Trophy as a competition.

Isn't it the case the M-Sport have actually sold all cars from 2016 and earlier? I don't think they have any cars sitting around for prospective WRC Trophy clients. They were the prime people pushing for it so they clearly thought they had a business case.

Equally they were still churning out customer cars (albeit run under their M-Sport umbrella) while running as a works team.

M-Sport sold all Fiesta WRC previous generation. But i think is still possible buy Prokop, Kubica and Al-Rahji units
