No. Selling double the cars which Loeb makes them sell.

By the way which money they're talking about?
Is it the money which is paid to Loeb by Redbull

On the story it said that "Red Bull has offered Kimi twice the pay Loeb is getting", but isn't indicating directly are they talking about Loeb/Red Bull deal or all the income Loeb's rumoured to have. However, since yesterday this story has gotten to whole different heights - and judging by the pure commercial value Kimi would be the biggest name in WRC.

mtv3 just showed an interview with malcolm wilson, he confirmed that they try to put together a few rallies program with bosse starting from sweden.

Finnish MTV3 reports that Malcolm Wilson is planning to make Mikko a clear first driver in the 2010 season, leaving JML as a second driver. Even before the season starts. Cars will be identical but all decisions will favour Mikko. This isn't 100% sure yet though, Malcolm wants to discuss with both drivers in January.

I can't express how deeply lugubrious I am. This decision is a blow against my - and all other people supporting JML - face. After this terrible season I was so eager to see JM fighting for the victories. He would have been mentally ready more than ever before. But no. Most likely he will not be allowed to win.

I honestly believe this will just cause more trouble to JM. He will make mistakes and lose valuable points. JM is not a guy who you leave to bring those sure points home. JM is a driver who lives for winning. He needs to get to the attack groove. Malcolm, please, do not do this.

I can't remember when I would have felt more doleful over rally.
