Re: [WRC] News & rumours (part II)
Tanak could be a interesting comeback, but i have a slight remember that it was his personality that was the biggest problem, in combination of money.
Lets hope he matured and have a better aproch this time, and good sponsors:)
Maybe a erc/wrc2 programme with some apperances in wrc is a good way for a potential young gun.
Re: [WRC] News & rumours (part II)
a shame but there is no way we will see Tanak in a wrc car next year , unless he wins the euro millions
Meeke has already been a world champion ! when the irc was better than wrc for amount of capable drivers ,
He needs a proper chance , correct me if i am wrong but i think the only qualifying stage winners are Ogier , Loeb and Meeke in 2013
Re: [WRC] News & rumours (part II)
I would love Meeke to be in Citroen as a full time driver. However I think it will depend if Matton has forgiven him for the Australian disaster. Meeke was silly to give away points like he did and not follow the Boss' instructions.

Mikko re launched his website earlier today. If he was about /bto be announced as an MSport driver in the next few days that newly re-launched website may need a re do to remove all references to another manufacturer.

As i know WRC2(RC2) program is already covered by sponsor money. I´m not sure why there is no official news yet, but i hope they are still hoping for a WRC seat.

Interesting.
Maybe they decided to keep Mikko in the end if Sordo said no to a full campaign?
I rather got the impression Mikko thought he would have got on better with the Fiesta again though. Maybe Malcolm needs pay drivers? :(
Re: [WRC] News & rumours (part II)
Citroen cannot decide anything anymore...these days are over for them

Was Thierry a pay driver last year or did he have some sponsors etc? Really be surprised to see Mikko remaining at citroen

Nasser paid Citroën for Thierry's car in 2012. The same happened for this season except that they both moved to M-Sport.
Thierry made his money from personal sponsors (clothing, watches, glasses...)
