I'm curious to see what Abbring will be doing next year, I guess he didn't receive a comparable offer otherwise he would have signed.
Fantastic for Breen to be continuing with Peugeot in 2015 after so much bad luck and reliability issues last year.. :)
“I’m delighted to be continuing with PEUGEOT Sport in 2015 when our priority will be the ERC title, ” says 24-year old Craig. “Last year wasn’t easy. We were down on luck and it was the 208 T16’s debut season but now all the ingredients are in place. The car combines speed and reliability and I know the team well, since this will be my third year as part of the official line-up. It’s going to be an exciting but busy year because my programme also includes, with PEUGEOT Sport support, seven WRC-2 outings in the 208 T16 with the same team.”
The PEUGEOT Rally Academy’s 2015 campaign with the 208 T16 and 208 promises to be particularly busy, beginning with its first competitive appearance on next month’s European Rally Championship opener, the Jännerrallye.
What is the future for Lappi, have I missed the news on his 2015 intentions ?
Not heard anything since celebrating Skoda's 50 golden wins ...

Skoda Motorsport will not start with S2000 car anymore. They are waiting for R5 car...
It depends on what the deal Abrring has made for '15, maybe better than another year at Peugeot, or no deal at all: bet on wrong horse... Time will tell, we probably get answer on short notice
Škoda doesn't plan any starts before late March/April therefore they have time for negotiations. The stock Fabia is brand new. It needs some promotion and Škoda is in very good financial condition to afford that. We can safely assume they will do ERC, WRC2 and Czech championship together with a certain number of other national championships with the new R5 car (Belgium, Austria for example). For WRC2, ERC and Czech championship they need more than two drivers. Abbring certainly is in the radar but he has another options too.
Yep ! :)Quote:

The Academy’s programme will again be overseen by Team Saintéloc."
