No, that means at least 7 rounds. They will do all rounds, most likely. There is no point to register two teams as a manufacturers. One costs over 300 000 EUR, other costs 21 000 EUR for one car team and 42 000 Eur for 2 cars team. Only problem is the number of test days (manu gets 42 days, Team gets 15 days).Quote:

These entries may only score points in a maximum of seven rounds."Quote:

1 Citroen Total Abu Dhabi WRT - Loeb
2 Citroen Total Abu Dhabi WRT - Hirvonen
3 Citroen Total Abu Dhabi WRT - Sordo
4 Qatar M-Sport WRT - Ostberg
5 Qatar M-Sport WRT - Novikov
6 Qatar WRT (M2) - Al Attiyah / or replacing drivers
7 Volkswagen Motorsport - Latvala
8 Volkswagen Motorsport - Ogier
9 Volkswagen Motorsport - Mikkelsen
10 Abu Dhabi Citroen WRT (M2) - Al Qassimi / Sordo
11Qatar WRT (M2) - Neuville
12 Lotos Team WRC (M2) - Kosciuszko
Maybe this?
1 Citroen Total Abu Dhabi WRT - Loeb / Sordo
2 Citroen Total Abu Dhabi WRT - Hirvonen
3 Qatar M-Sport WRT - Ostberg
4 Qatar M-Sport WRT - Novikov
5 Qatar WRT (M2) - Neuville
6 Qatar WRT (M2) - Al Attiyah / or replacing drivers (like Hänninen)
7 Volkswagen Motorsport - Latvala
8 Volkswagen Motorsport - Ogier
9 Abu Dhabi Citroen WRT (M2) - Al Qassimi / Sordo
10 Lotos Team WRC (M2) - Kosciuszko
When comes FIA with teams list?
No, alleskids is almost correct.
Citroen have 1,2,3. Number 1 is used only when Loeb takes part.
Qatar M-Sport WRT has 4,5.
Qatar WRT has nr 6. Neuville joined on the very last moment and therefore he got the first available number. NR11
VW has nr 7 and 8. Mikkelsen is not part on M team, so, his number should be somewhere further behind
Abu Dhabi Citrone Total World Rally Team has nr 10
Lotos is nr 12
There will be probably one more team carring number 9 on its car
You are quick learner! These 96 (or smth) pages are useful reading to understand many basics in the sport called WRC ;-)Quote:

Mikkelsen could be #9 if Volkswagen is going with M2 team.
Why Citroen didn't use #3 for Sordo in MC?
