We have seen that getting an experienced codriver was important for Gus, he started to finish rallies.

Who will he get in next after Mr Patterson?

Just wait 3 more days ...

Monza entries will be published ...
(or maybe it says TBA)

But has he recovered yet from the injury?

Jonas Anderson for Monza and for Gus in 2022 (according to Chris Patterson who will remain at M-Sport to assist.)

A bit surprising that Jonas will co-drive for Gus, I don't think he's ever read pacenotes in English before? Interesting anyway!

My thoughts exactly!

Also surprising choice because Anderson is already quite old, turns 45 next year, so he won’t likely be doing many more years. Yes, you need experience but also not nice to be changing co-driver again in a few years…

Maybe Gus speaks fluent Swedish?! Do you see Veiby anywhere next year?

He read notes on one event in Ireland in 2007 with Kris meeke in English.

Listening to Chris Patterson on WRC Backstories he was reluctant to take all the credit for Greensmith's 2021 improvement. He stated that the whole team, his family and Gus himself had all made a big effort.

He also reiterated the huge belief that M.Wilson has in him and how much talent Gus has shown considering his relatively late start in the sport. His family has no previous connectiion with rallying at all.

Of course finance has helped since he switched from almost pro-football to rallying, but he has been totally committed to making it in WRC and impressed many at M-Sport.

Patterson also stated that Gus is a great friend now, a real gentleman and doesnt deserve the abuse he often gets.

EVEN management have other co-drivers in theire ranks, likely Anderson is rented from EVEN.

Gus doesn’t drive anything else than Ford since 2013.
