[WRC] News & rumours (part IV) 2016

interview with Neuville at belgian site

https://translate.google.ee/translat...bc9&edit-text=


between the lines it seems to me that it is pretty clear the he is leaving Hyundai. Toyota and M-sport are ruled out because he wants a winning car so that leaves just Citroen and i think it will happen. Most interesting thing in this interview is this: VW, logically complete is displayed for confirmation in Finland Latvala for two years alongside Seb Ogier and Andreas Mikkelsen: "Never say there is no place ... Everything can change quickly.

An user in finnish forum (who i think is also here) has said that Neuville to Citroen and Suninen to Hyundai.

To all of you for whom English is not their first language that isn't an example of British-English idiom, it's just a 13 year-old in a man's body who has somehow got a job as a journalist.

Wow. Set up a blog, write some words, and let us all see if you are as good.

FYI "he's just writing complete wank" isn't much better...

Latvala's VW deal could be up at the end of next season if they don't take up their option for 2018+19. Not that that really helps Neuville at the moment.

Lappi in at Toyota. Suninen in at Hyundai would really be something. Steps in the right direction for the WRC if it happens.

A rumour on RS fb site that next year's rally will be held on 10-12 February.

I don't know more then what the article says but according the article, the service area will be Torsby airport with Torsby as the new base for the rally.
However Glenn says that they need to have accommodation guarantees from accommodation providers in Torsby and Sunne to pull it off.
