I think it all depends on how good the VW is - if it still needs development then Petter is equal to Sordo and Mikko averaged across all surfaces. If Petter can improve his consistency without losing speed then there is a chance, and Ostberg can get consistent top 4s too which will help in the manufacturers. But if the VW is quick then I agree - Ford have a slower car and slower drivers than VW!Quote:

Mini
Whoever brings in the most money
I think that's how it's going to play out. With Juho at Mini or testing for Hyundai ready for 2014 I'd guess.Quote:

I'll guess they the don't care about us "Easties". :down: :down:
Hopefully I can go on Friday but if not i probably won't bother going in 2013.
Why not PG in Ford? Look what he did last year in Sardinia and Sweden in a Ford. I think he is faster than Östberg.
I would agree, PG is a lot faster than many give him credit for. Unfortunately, like one or two others, he's becoming the forgotten man.Quote:

Should be a couple of RRC cars for the ERC too maybe.
