Not looking too bad tbh and they sound serious about a WRC2 programme. But are there any results for this car we can analyse or point to in order to suggest it is ready for WRC?Quote:

Any ideas for the other drivers they have?
It makes no sense only to be there. They have to take some of the very best drivers available to achieve also some remarkable results like they did in the past with the Satria S2000.
If its money available, they should hire some of the free drivers, like Tidemand, Meeke, Lappi(?), Paddon, etc, for single outings or whole season in ERC and WRC3.

Maybe Mellor should give Mikkelsen a call, to get him in for a few rallies in either WRC or ERC, to get the car a real test.
He has been quick in many cars, and should give them a good bunch of data and feedback!
Yes, I guess he wants to keep his ties to Hyundai though.Quote:

We’ve seen the new Yaris WRC starting testing over on the WRC forums, do we know anything about the rumoured Rally2/R5 version?
Last rumour I heard was the project has been halted for the moment.
Really don't like this new 'Rally 2' name for R5 cars, sounds silly.
