M.Gronholm wasn't long term strategy.. They had money to pay this high profile man for few more seasons so it's not the problem for them..

JM-L was the long term strategy it's just not worked that well so far.

What Ford need is less competition - they have more chance of winning!

if the story is real then ford are able to get ogiers siganature at any cost,remember they lured mcrae from subaru when he was the king to a new untested focus.

Ogier would make a big mistake to accept any FORD proposal.
I don't believe he will accept anything else than drive a Citroën. Going to FORD now, after the once in a lifetime chance he has been given by Quesnel to drive a factory car for free, would be a career suicide.
Knowing french mentality he would NEVER be taken back into the team. If for some reason the Ford option doesn't work out he is finished. What if the Fiesta is crap ?
Too many uncertainties for him.
Wilson will be convinced by Jouhki to give more time to Latvala. I am sure there is more money where the rest came from.

I agree..

then he ll end up to be a one make champion like loeb,citroen.a true champion is the one winning in different cars to show his ability in all cars.

So a good driver should quit a good team to drive for a crap one just to prove that he's good? Tell Petter that driving for a crap team is good.

So he should stack the odds against himself? Tbh that's a pretty dumb thing to do and I don't recall any drivers moving to an inferior team on purpose just to prove something.
