[WRC] News & rumours (part III)

[Simmi]

Also trying to rank the current crop of drivers in terms of what they've won is pretty futile given that most came up against a brick wall of Loeb, and if not him, the chronic lack of factory seats.

[Rallyper]

+1 Simmi.

The curent discussion about Paddon is ridicoulus, more from some and less from some guys, but still it´s a none subject until we have a subject to discuss: Paddon having done half season at least.

[Franky]

Could we separate all the Hayden Paddon posts into a dedicated thread?

There is new thread for Hayden now. leave news and rumors for news and rumors

[PLuto]

Like I wrote on that new thread, does it have a sense to have special thread for one driver? Especially when I think that there is lot of words about him now when he joined Hyundai, but is na future...

Who will be selling the cars for Hyundai?

Sordo? Yes in Spain and Spanish speaking countries.
Neuville? Yes in Belgium and other places.
Atkinson? Yes in Australia - a HUGE market for the brand. And they sell so much so marketing will work and get the sport known!
Paddon? You bet, for NZ!
Hanninen? Finland? I would presume so!

Hyundai are here in the WRC to sell cars, and to get their car in top competition.

Msport are in the game to make money building cars.

VW - same as Hyundai - to sell cars!

Citroen.... Well now they have the WTCC, China , India and Europe are their markets but China is very important! For the WRC, yeh.. Well they'll sell but it won't have an impact like Loeb had or even Solberg!
