[Psycho!]

Great news!!Let's hope Marcus will find the resources to compete and to have more testing....!

[Hartusvuori]

Are Portugal and Poland only preparations for Rally Finland? Hope so!

[jbmarcus21]

only rallybuzz speak about this.. strange...

[Lalo]

Great to hear that!

Go Marcus! :D

[lcd]

It can't be a championship without Peter and Marcus behind the wheel..! ;)

I think it is very very unlikely Marcus will contest NORF - that is the one rally of the season more than all others where every driver is pushing over the limit to be competitive; i am sure, unless a ridiculous fee was offered, he would not want to get back in that not-so-fast Impreza, still rusty from not rallying, at the fastest rally of the year, at home, and risk a big crash - or losing face.

Well, Bosse will not be rusty if he competes in NORF! That´s for sure! :rolleyes:

Agree!! :D :D

I may go.. I want to go to NORF but its more expensive.... anyone has previous experience of rally poland?

[alleskids]

Marcus is still in doubt if he wants to do a second rally, even if Prodrive finds the budget. Marcus is not sure he has the right commitment after his retiment .

[Finni]

I wonder why Ford is not doing everything to get Marcus to drive. Considering Marcus' Portugal pace he could gstill give Loeb real challenge..only hope for the Ford.

I think Poland entries closed on Wednesday? So probably no Marcus there

[toras]

Entry list will be published on 1.06.

[tolis]

[toras]

About enrys? Only this:
"The media also enquired about the list of competitors signed on for the Polish Rally. The full list will be publicly announced on June 1st."
And news from press conference:

Thanks toras!!!

And few words about bridge on special stage:
"Last year, the special track gave a lot of excitement to spectators and several experts have claimed that it might turn out to be one of the most impressive tracks in the entire WRC series. There will be many more features on the Mikołajki track this year and the last development work is now being finalised. For example, the bridge that will allow competitors to avoid collisions during the event has now been constructed......."

F1 driver Robert Kubica will not do the Poland rally with the Skoda Fabia WRC he bought. He bought the car just for fun and privat testing. He is planning doining rallies after his F1 carrier has ended.

I predict Malcolm Wilson gives MG a works car in NORF with manufacturers nomination, and demotes JML

[Mirek]

JML stays in M1 for NORF. Confirmed by MW today.

[A.F.F.]

Marcus doesn't want to drive NORF.

[jbmarcus21]

Yes absolutly yes... The only hope was to see him, was Poland rally.. but finally not ..

Small hope for Wales GB Rally with Prodrive not ?
