While not really a surprise it does make one wonder who will do the tarmac.Quote:

The driver ending up to do the tarmac-rounds ending up as mikkelsen, or loeb, no good results.

Obviously after that (in Dirtfish words) "doomed to fail" tarmac focused part program he had last year I do not think they had a long line of drivers who wanted to try that.
Which is why I was expecting that the tarmac rounds would get split differently next year (and that there will be only two drivers sharing seat). Doesn't look like that yet, with Sordo not doing any.
Hopefully Paddon did not agree to tarmac-focused suicide run only.
Paddon has had some decent tarmac performances in ERC (2nd Canarias 2023, 1st Ceredigion 2024) but of course that was in the Rally2 car.
