They've been developing the car all throughout the year, haven't they? Surely they've got a complete car by now. It may not be competetitive in its current form, much less officially homologated, but surely it'd be ready to test...
Give Leon a kick and tell him to get to work!

The new Subaru is set to run its first race in Greece.
At the factory in England the test has just begun.
The article: http://www.vg.no/pub/vgart.hbs?artid=191520 also states that the car is brand new, and not an evolution of an old car.
Somewhat wrongly the article says that “since Subaru did enter rally in 1991 has all cars witch is introduced since that has been based on the Legacy witch was introduced in 1991”….

They're doomed!!!
I hear that they may actually be introducing it 2 rallies earlier that Finland which must make it the end of May time.....they must be mad if you ask me that or the commercial people have pulled some strings.
If they are only running at MIRA that gives a few months to do all your other testing (gravel, tarmac etc) before they will have to get orders in for rally bits!
They clearly haven't learnt that doing all your testing on rallies (see S12b for an example of this) is a bit much as (generally) you are either slow, breaking bits or slow and breaking bits...hardly good PR for Subaru!
i really hope I am proven wrong on this as I think another season of mediocrity will result in Subaru pulling the plug and potentially the end of WRC as we know it as what would Ford and Citroen have to gain fighting it out between them selves?
I'm interested to hear what everyone else thinks about it all.

Well, I really hope Subaru will be up on the pace again! There commitment should be rewarded and it would be awesome to see 3 teams battling for first instead of just 2!
