    What a joke they'd be.

    However I'm sure they'll have at least a 3rd car - probably 4.. Find it hard to understand why you'd develop and test with Fourmaux so much - after him showing he has genuine future potential, only to not run him in Monte while Greensmith starts.

    Unless Msport are getting too greedy with their demands for money/backing/sponsorship

    Dirtfish jerking around as usual lately... Fourmaux, Greensmith and Breen are starting RMC. The only question is if a 4th Puma runs and with who behind the wheel.

    Anyway this announcement is just dirtfish building up expectations for the MSport announcement. Likely ordered or even paid by MSport.

    Sources close to the negotiations can neither deny or confirm this statement.

    I just noticed Seb Loeb is listed as a priority driver for Rally Raid. Doesn't necessarily mean anything more than Dakar, or that more rounds will conflict with WRC rounds/program but sources close to this post are stoking the fire and making noises like a ghost. "Oooooooohhhhhh".

    M-Sport, pay...?! I don't think so.

    Probably just 'you scratch our back, we'll scratch yours', like with Adamo.

    Monte Carlo is about to happen in just a few weeks and there are Christmas here as well. Due to the general lateness of the WRC development it must be difficult to make everything ready in time. Moreover running three cars is not the same as building them while even that is for sure challenging at this point.

    Thankfully as others have said think this is just building upto an announcement from Msport that can be turned into a positive. 3 cars at least.

    As i said 5 weeks ago, Loeb signed to drive for m-sport at the end of october. If he did'nt do monte carlo there was no other outings.
    Fourmaux will do a full campaign as well.
    Dirtfish know this and are just trying to build the drama.
