Petter, Henning, Mads, but next best is Mikkelsen with a 5th in Sweden. I am sure Andreas could take podiums if he was in the WRC ;)

I'm not even Norwegian, just an honorary one!

I think it would be cool to see Ogier in that second ford.

It is strange that Norway has 4 drivers that can take podiums in WRC. A country with 5 million people and where Rally was not allowed until 1987/88 !

The answer is simple...

In Norway in order to climb up the ladder you need to have money and skills...and usually manufacturers appreciate the latter...

In Greece in order to climb up the ladder you have to have money, yes men, good connections with the people who control the sport and of course to be able to diminish the chances of the competition by non-legal means...skills are irellevant...and that is the reason why...

Everything in life is explained with logic... why would you expect a country where 70% of its citizens are common corrupted thieves to have different values when it comes to motorsport ??

Sure it would but Ogier is works driver of VW.

I've just this second heard a very interesting link to the Ford seat - they've already been in contact with someone I wouldn't have thought would have had a look-in. Obviously I can't say much and I know this is just teasing, but there is a chance it might not be someone as obvious as has already been suggested. I'll wait for more info before making more certain comments!
