Mikkelsen was confirmed for a whole year, not every WRC rally but combining it with IRC. So probably the rounds that Mikkelsen will not drive, then Abbring probably takes over the wheel.

The price is fair. You can buy Fiat S2000 with the same price and you have to add aonother 100 000 to get proper S2000 car.Quote:

By not advertising you won't sell any more cars than you are at the moment. What's the worst that can happen? Go bankrupt twice?Quote:

I think it's not so big issue. Can't remember any top driver who doesn't crash on tests at least from time to time. It's part of the game ;)Quote:

if i´d know what dmack´s look like maybe. but i see nothing blue on it, so i guess it´s not michelin...
It is Michelin. The tread is slightly different and also the label is visible, just have a closer look ;)
By the way Melichárek will be on DMack with 207 S2000. It probably won't say anything about them, so it's just an information.
btw, on official facebook page of M-Sport Ford WRT it's said, that Tänak runs with Michelin's (not said, but one of main sponsor logos on car is Michelin's) and will do all the 13 rallies of the season.
ok, that´s perfect...honestly, i still can´t identify any michelin logo on that tires, even if i zomm 1000%, but ok :p :
but here´s tänaks livery, says it all:

Just have to comment on this(KKK :s collection) I have had the privilege to visit the "museum" and can with great assurance say that although one might think so, than the pictures don`t do the place justice. It really is THAT amazing!
I wonder how much he will earn if it was open for the public.....
That is amazing.....
Amazing indeed, they all look really authentic. Never knew kankkunen was into scale models too, great.
