That's just usual Škoda way of speaking denying anything until someone puts photos on internet... They are working on R5 and they want R2T or something like that to be allowed by FIA. Both cars are planned only with Fabia III which is planned to enter production in early 2014. But that's nothing new just repeating of what was already said dozens of times...
So Kopecky will have to drive a heavily disguised car in testing this year?Quote:

Peugeot 208 R5 | Facebook - A short video from first test... :) (So some of you can now make a lot of comments about how bad the car will be, like the first roll-out -not test- of Hyundai's car)
Premières images de la 208 Type R5 en test - Vidéo Dailymotion - Same video, for those without facebook... :)
The turbo waste gate sounds amazing! Reminds me the Impreza WRC 2000
We want more. :)Quote:

I am also so pleased they allowed the cars to be widened, especially as stock 208 suffers a bit from "Fabia 2 syndrome" - too tall compared to width.
Please can someobody make this thread appear also in the ERC forum as I think R5 will be very important to that series.
