[WRC] News & rumours (part IV) 2016

Also in MN - Teemu Suninen being heavily linked to Citroen next year.

Quotes from Timo Jouhki: With the development and progression he has been doing, he is ready for the World Rally Car next year and I'm pretty sure I can get him in. Citroen is the preferred option. Next one is either Hyundai or Tommi, and M-Sport is the last one."


Pretty crazy that Jouhki would openly rank the teams like that in public. Signs he is very confident I think. Bad news for Lefebvre/Breen when coupled with the news they'll just have two cars.

I like how he calls Toyota just 'Tommi.'

Are you a journalist ? please say no...

This is such a joke. Even at Wrc or F1 control tyre is ridicilous they need to let tyre companies but money and research on the series to make them better. If there is a such a control tyre today Dmack will not be improve this much.

I am not. I write for them because they are very nice friends and I love rally.
I work in the digital/content/marketing industry though, so I'm used to content publishing somehow..
Why you asked? Just for trolling?

i am always trolling. Its what a dear leader must do in order to preserve balance in the universe.

Has anyone else heard about PH Sport running two DS3s next year in addition to the factory?

It's just kind of slotted in this article like it's common knowledge - http://www.motorsport.com/wrc/news/c...medium=twitter

Its says 2 DS3s so probably R5 cars.

Running DS3s next year will be pretty hopeless though.
