    At the Autosport Show - "Sebastien has driven the 2017 Volkswagen, his feedback has been valuable," Wilson says of Ogier's input with M-Sport's Fiesta from his limited testing programme.

    It sounded like Ogier thought the new Fiesta compared quite well with the 2017 Polo. I think that's what is giving Wison some confidence until his car can compare with the others for real in Monte.

    Not correct, that would be more like the price of running a two car team for a season according to Veiby.

    Exactly.

    Homolgation costs would have to come on top of that.

    The best thing I can say is they'll look a lot cooler driving around with a wing torn off. But then rally cars have always looked cool continuing on after taking body damage that would stop a circuit racer.

    The Red Bull livery is fairly consistent with all their other competition cars, so ugly or not at least the brand's on message.

    question is how many events FIA would ask them to compete to obligate homologation

    I think the rule back in the day was at least 4 rallies(thats what Peugeot entered in 1999,Citroen in 2001,Mini in 2011).Don't know if it still applies..
