Problem is most Czech championships are tarmac and although they have some of the best drivers in the World, they have few experience on gravel, which might not come in andy in a gravel oriented championship.

I guess they will get plenty of competition miles on the engine in the Fabia next year at least.Quote:

Maybe he's keeping it hush hush from citroen? Theres not many german drivers that are as well known as petter.Quote:

I'm sure a lot will also depend on what Loeb does, if he goes Solberg could be in line to replace him and I don't think there is anyone else better qualified.
There will be more changes in who drives and where than most think.Quote:

Anyone who wants to talk about who they want in the teams would be better use http://www.motorsportforums.com/foru...s-and-comments.,

The car looks great...
