    News about the entries. They say Huttunen is in WRC2, but with what car? Already a Hyundai? And it says Skoda has only Veiby and Tidemand, so no Nordgren?
    I think Nordgren confirmed on Twitter (?) that he will be there.

    Yes Motorsport News today said he'll be there with the Hyundai. Pretty cool.

    Well, it's Skoda Motorsport that didn't let him start in the mandatory WRC2 events (Portugal and Wales). From the 3 mandatory, he only did Germany. So nearly impossible to become champion that way.

    Shouldn't Suninen be there as well with Fiesta R5? Or will he get another outing in 2017-spec WRC?

    I meant that for three years in a row Kopecký was given only so few WRC2 rounds to be perfectly irrelevant in the final season's results. In my book it means they hasn't ever wanted him to achieve anything there against the other team guys. The reason for me is unknown.

    Moreover here in Wales they give up season double without a fight. I simply don't understand their reasoning.

    I have to say, Kopecky has been extremely loyal to Skoda; in my opinion they haven't always returned the favour. I would like to have see him on Rally of GB, but a place couldn't be found for him.
    For years we saw the Skoda team win their class award on the old RAC, and also the pairing of Triner & Sibera driving the wheels off the cars.

    Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

    The initial plan to Suninen was be there in WRC if WRC2 standings closed.
