I hope he does get signed but with all these younger drivers I don't know how VW will choose 3 of them. They all seem quite execptional for their age. Further Petter does seems to be heading a bit the way of Jacques Villeneuve (ie not used to his full potential when lesser men are promoted ahead of him).

Only if they couldn't get Loeb. But that really depends on whether they want an 'older' guy to develop the car or will simpy use the Fabia to get all the data they need and hand it over to some younger people.

7 million!? That must be a translation error.
Or is he still paying himself what he got from Subaru?

7 million euros is cheap for managing a WRC-team. Compare to other motorsports on world level and you´ll see.
