Well, with this preparation and timing M-Sport will be back in level similar to the year when they did not even run PETs; i think it was the season it went sour with Sunninen. The only difference is that M-Sport has data from 3 events with non-hybrid car, but still that can not be used 100% as they were ought to use ballast.
Munster confirmed

He's indeed a nice fella and showed signs of progress by year end, but having him lead the team is a stretch, to say the least. Unless they pull out an outstanding second driver from nowhere, this definitely looks like a "survival year" for MSport ...Quote:

It is either Sesks or Turkkan (I know it is a long shot but that was the first name came to my mind when I saw the word junior and given the connections with his team Castrol Ford Team Turkey and M-sport and in addition his recent test with Rally1 in UK).Quote:

ah mate, no oli, no sesks (probably). that sucks :(
wrc2 to be cool then, but so little coverage. is rallyTV doing the half hour wrc2 highlights still??
I wonder if it will be Josh McErlean or Jon Armstrong. Both have backing from Motorsport Ireland, and both were present in Japan with Instagram posts talking about "good experience for the future" or similar. I could definitely see one of them taking the seat, and either would be better than Munster.
Well, it seems next announcement (tomorrow?) will be bigger surprise than Munster. Thatīs why he was allowed to have this day in the limelight alone, going out first in the presentations.
Somebody is flying under the radar. 😁Quote:
