Which M2 driver has won any rally?
A 2009 Subaru should at least be as good as a 2008 Citroen and Ford (hopefully).

So it's just a job then?

If Subaru ran two M1 teams, they couldn't both score for 'Subaru' surely.

If you get paid then yes, don't know how else to call it.

Just been looking at Ofcoms website (sorry its part of my job!) and no licenses have been requested for Wales during the Rally weekend - also its passed the time to put an application in.
It will be a shame to to be able to hear event information on FM - will have to take the iPod touch and listen to WRC radio over the internet.

I think Radio LeMans are doing coverage of Rally GB again this year, last year they had Mark James as part of the commentators. Better than the usual WRC Radio.

No information on the wales rally gb site - apart from an old link - Its quite expensive to do an station for the weekend - perhaps they are not bothering.
At least we have some live coverage of the sport on the internet.

Good with a M2 team, but with rautenbach ??

Aava and Ogier had been a proper choice.
or someone else like Wilks, Mikkelssen or Meeke.

I know he's bought the seat and therefore has a right to be there but..........
Sorry, what a waste of a good seat going by his performances so far. maybe he will improve but I suspect not.
