I love the attitude more than the news itself!
C'mon Bosse, come home :)

It will be the same with Loeb after two years if he will retire next year..

Gronholm is going to be a nice addition to the championship and for sure a good standard for other mini drivers to compare with.

Bosse was supposed to have made a decision with DR last Thursday. I expect we shall hear at the Paris Salon at the weekend or early next week.

They are quoting this Autosport article from last Friday.

It'd be nice to have Marcus back. He always brings some extra to the rallies with his presence, especially now after his "official" retirement. Nothing wrong with that. I hope Loeb will do same kind of one-offs once he retire, though highly doubt it. Like Marcus says, it's for the love of the sport, so hard to fight against it.

Has the master of front wheel drive been part of developing this one ?

Did anyone notice the new Audi Quattro at the recent Paris Motoshow?

This new car reminds me of the Group S quattro that was supposed to be used before the group B ban.

Anybody knows if there is more to it than just a new model?
