[WRC] News & rumours (part III)

Some news from Rallye de France. For the moment, Corsica is still not official.
FFSA (french federation) has to close his contract with Alsace. FFSA has to vote it at the end of january. Corsican comity thinks it will be ok, but it's never sure ...
If the rally come-back in Corsica it will be a real Tour de Corse, starting from a point to go to another, not a race stuck near to Ajaccio or Bastia.
For the moment, no other region is candidate. So or the rally is in Corsica, or it doesn't exist anymore.

Personally I dont really like the VW especially the front half of the car, it is too dark. The rear is nice.
M-sport is by far the best this year for me.

is this a factory team or a sponsor team?
Redbull step too much forward then the manufacturer....
IMO

Geez, you must hate the Citroen, Hyundai and Ford then....

I like the RedBull VW Polo - I think its the best looking livery of the 2015 season, with MSport 2nd, I think the Citroen is awful.
However, I cant help but thinking that RedBull should have used that money to develop the promotion of the sport, it's not like VW were short of budget before. Also, should a sports promoter be so blatantly associated with one manufacturer? OK I know its the manufacturer that wins, but it doesnt come accross as impartial. And this from a Seb Ogier VW supporter.
