Interesting info on which 5 drivers have a completely new chasis as opposed to an upgraded chasis that was used last year. Martin also reveals which teams displayed replica cars at ASI 18, which team took a test car to ASI 18 and which team had the real beast at ASI 18

Guess without looking : Test car for Toyota, real car from Ford, Citroen + Hyundai mock ups.Quote:

Then comes very warm period that basically should melt most of the snow from all the roads but snow should stay on the side of the road in higher stages.
SD likely nice and warm,
Thursday night close to zero, especially Sisteron,
Overnight rain on Friday stages and during morning loop, likely rain, very little chanche of snow (snow only on Saturday stages).
Saturday is likely nice weather and stage 9-10 might have some snow from overnight and previous day
Sunday, if everything stays the same, then no minus degrees for Col de Turini stages. But still very far to call.
Likelyhood of warmer weather is higher than likelyhood of colder weather.
PS! If you are used to cooler weather and +10 is Ok for you then you might need shorts for SD :P
PS2! You should find me from SP during rally and in the region from Sunday evening:)
But I want snow!
You must choose different event ;)Quote:

And the Volvo behind :D Wonder who (if anyone) will change recce cars.
Anyone know what odds I can get on Boufier winning?
Neuville 3.00
Bouffier 40.00
Onebet
3.00 for Neuville is good - see my predictions thread for 2018 (as of 22.28 just about to compose!)Quote:

Unless the weather forecast changes, and we get similar 'mixed' conditions to 2011, then I wouldn't think he'd challenge the top crews....Quote:

So this is where the budget for the third car at Citroen went?
Any hospitality experts know if that's one that Citroen were using in the WTCC a few years ago? Or like SubaruNorway says is this new investment?
