I think that in case they really want to do ERC they need at least one driver who can bring them overall victories. Without that it doesn't make much sense from marketing point of view. That means someone capable of defeating Kajto, Lukyanuk and local heroes and someone who also knows ERC events so that he can start delivering right away. There isn't many of such drivers around who aren't already employed in WRC. Bouffier is one name which comes to my mind. Or there is another option - they can steal the show by taking Kajto or Lukyanuk under their wings.

British team would make sense. Beating Kajto speed wise (like Luky, Sirmacis, Gryazin, Bouffier, Rovanpera etc. have shown) should be possible from many drivers. Beating Luky (if he is able to do whole season and finish most of them) will definitely be harder.
If DMack will come to ERC and want to win they will most likely bring Ingram and someone other young driver (Cave would make sense) with them. Gryazin would be good but he dosen't really need any financial help and is most likely going to take part in WRC2 instead.
No one knows what Sirmacis is going to do, we know he is fast but dose he have any backing left? no one knows.

Neither Gryazin nor Sirmacis can reallistically win any asphalt event and they can also hardly give much feedback for asphalt tyre development. I mention that specifically because the sales potential for asphalt tyres is somewhat bigger in ERC countries than for gravel tyres. I named Bouffier also because he has plenty of experience as a test driver but that was of course only a name I would probably choose against the other ERC contenders.
