This simple change to include WRC2 Pro couldnt have been made any more confusing by the teams and their entries for Monte, not to mention the lack of clarity about the entries for the year ahead.
It could have been a great new addition and still might be, but such a poor start.
Mads just confirmed WRC2 Pro for a full season with DG Sport C3R5.
Starts in Sweden.
Since every event potentially counts into WRC2 Pro Kalle can do half of the events with works car (alongside Kopecký maybe) and the other half with TGS car but under Škoda banner. Like that everyone is happy.Quote:

Two day test this week for Gryazin and two events in Norway, starting with Sigdalsrally this weekend followed by Rally Finnskogen.
Mads vs. Kalle. That's a proper showdown right there. Great news.
Škoda has much better car but it will be interesting fight
We'll see. It hasn't been exactly an all-star line-up driving the C3R5 so far.Quote:

It's a bit like the DS3 R5, that wasn't a great car either. Not to mention Rally Sweden will probably be more of an snow test than anything for the C3.
Mads did a good job last season and deserves a proper season-long drive after missing a WRC seat.
Plus Citroen needed to get a decent driver in the C3 R5 to promote its credibility and boost sales against the tough Fabia and Polo competition.
