Suzuki Anouncing Drivers Friday

Gardemeister has been in lots of different cars and the year with Ford in 2005 he was leading overall after two rounds and fourth overall only 13 points behind Petter so thers no doubt he would be a good choice.

I think it is a very good team, let's see if the car develops.

Thought they had put off the announcment due to Hirotaka Ono passing away?
If this is right though I though they might have secured a bigger name than Gardemeister although he has done quite a few of the events he just seems to be a bit off the pace?

They have.

It's good to know that Galli will be at Stobart team next year, I didn't know that.

Toni will be a very good element in order to develope the car. I hope he don't get the same situation he had at Skoda for three years. Andersson will be making his debut in the WRC category and he may have a couple of good results as Loeb and Sordo had after jumping up from the JWRC.

If everything goes on Suzuki's favor, the team won't have the same luck as Skoda did a couple of years ago. Maybe they'll be like Mitsubishi in 2004 and 2005 (too bad they quitted the developement after that season).

Good luck Suzuki, Toni and Per-Gunnar!!

Suzuki wouldn't get top results even if they had signed Loeb...

Good to see Toni driving a full season, but it's a pity he can't get a proper car. IF Suzuki can make it to be on the top, it's going to happen after 2-3 years or so. Toni will be too old for Suzuki then.
