Thanks for the info! The trailer doesn't look bad. I wonder if this movie will be played in cinemas or is it too much of a niche topic for the general audience?

The real story is interesting enough, but I fear they will go down the "Grand Tour" route and make it something like "poor cheating italians" against "german organization and engineering excellence". Which would be laughable considering how Abarth and Audi operated respectively at the time.
"In Theaters, On Demand, and On Digital January 5"
Looks like it won't get wide cinema release. PVOD at day 1 and announcement only a month before release points out it will be smaller film. Also it's not in the Czech film distribution list (ofc that can be because it was just announced, but distributors usually lists unannounced films too).

“ At the World Motor Sport Council Strategy session at the Annual General Assemblies Week in Baku today, it was agreed to form a Working Group to evaluate and recommend the future direction of rallying. The Working Group will be led by FIA Deputy President for Sport Robert Reid and World Motor Sport Council member David Richards.
Under consideration will be the technical, sporting and promotional aspects of the FIA World Rally Championship. The group will also address the pathway for grass roots development of rallying.
An initial working paper will be presented for consideration by the WMSC and WRC Commission within two weeks.”
If Mikkelsen to Hyundai, Pajari to Toyota, russhian to Citroen.. then maybe Skoda managed to keep Solberg as they need someone fast in their car..
No big roumors about Solberg so far and hasn't tested Toyota either..?
I can imagine that they will find some solutions for issues that never existed, will ignore real issues, wait three year, then FIA will start to wonder why nothing happened and finally start a new working group.
