No, can depend on two different attitudes:
1) Disappointment
2) Knowing the product wasn´t ready for a WDC title, and therefore didn´t want to risk bad publicity.

Pretty disappointing if the 3rd M-Sport entry will indeed be the (sole) DMACK entry.

Malcolm Wilson in an interview to @errsport - Camili will start Monte-Carlo in an R5-spec Ford Fiesta. #WRC #MonteCarlo
Also:
Wilson in an interview with @errsport - "If we couldn't have gotten Ogier then our next target would have been Mikkelsen." #WRC #MSport
Wilson to @errsport "We will probably also have Elfyn Evans driving for us in Monte-Carlo." #WRC
Yes and he basically confirms that Evans will be third driver in m-sport with dmack.
He also says there will be only one car for dmack. Mikkelsen with no drive then ?
Could Qatar/VW deal still be made?Quote:

This I dont understand.
The team could have any piece of asphalt, why choose a "misleading" one?
I guess Camilli's contract did not require a WRC drive, so he's doing what Evans did last year, driving the "official" MSport Ford WRC2 car.
It doesn't look so good for Mikkelsen at the moment but maybe a private Ford is possible. It seems that's also what Ostberg will do.
Too bad about the private VW team if the rumors are true; but it's not too late yet.
I imagine he was trying to say that the car wasn't properly tuned. Probably it used a dry tarmac set up, based on Haninnen driving style.Quote:
