Yes me to, but he have also said that he wants back to WRC because he don't feel that he is "done" there ;)
But I don't see that any top teams will take him on, but maybe Hyundai will if he now decide that he wants to go back but it's more likely that he stays with rallycross.

I like Petter as a person in WRC, he is fun and so on and he was also a real fast driver but after the Subaru era he dropped year after year sadly...

Hyundai will be a good choice. Mikko is generally fast, a hard worker and always diplomatic.

What I ment with Hyundai was for Petter if he decides to move back on the WRC-train.. ;)

I rather see Hirvonen in M-Sport again ;)

Citroen will not take him on 2014 I think but M-sport or Hyundai will. He is whatever we think, a good and fast driver in WRC. Right about now there is Ogier, Latvala, Neuville, Sordo, Hirvonen that is the "top drivers" that are most consistent if you guys understand me, but Östberg and Novikov is also fast but do more mistakes over a season then the rest. both Östberg and Novikov can be bloody fast aswell but I don't see them fighting for the WRC-title for some seasons at least.

About Hirvonen, I think that it's rather simple. Citroen as a Team don't fit him as a person, many drivers have said that Citroen is a hard team to come in to.

I think M-Sport can be an option if Citroen takes over Neuville for next season?

But we will see!

Petter Solberg also want a seat for next season as for the swedish/Norwegian medias... hahahahahaha :)

we aren't referring to Duval are we? ;)

Ogiers last split time on ss11 was correct? I thought there had been a mistake!!

Yes I would love to see Petter Solberg again in the WRC, independently of the manufacturer :D

What can we expect this afternoon? Still 126k to go this afternoon and tomorrow, that's one third of the rally. I'm impressed by Latvala's speed and consistency on these very typical tarmac roads. But he has only got about 15". One spin, one brake-point wrong, another Hinkelstein, and he's out of the lead. But to whom? Sordo is charging (finally), and I don't think Neuville can go any faster at this point.

Duval... haha.. No way. He was just to stupid and didn't drive "smart" at all and lost his career...

But what I understand, I'v heard that from Solberg in an swedish interview and some other drivers. They have talked about Citroen as a team and that it's tuff to "get in, in a proper way" with that team if you don't speak French for one example and so on. Not that Citroen is a "bad" team but that it can be "hard" to get a "good start" compered to M-Sport/Ford.

But I don't know, I don't have any experience there so ;) ;)

I think that Latvala will go little bit slower and safer this loop and he will stay in lead (finally!!!) :D (like that Latvala is back! :) )

Then I hope and really think that Sordo will take second away from Neuville. Sordo is faster today.

But it will be interesting with the rain, Panzerplatte will be bloody slippery with all this loose gravel...

I think that Kubica will charge and hold on to the lead in WRC 2 and for JWRC, ofc - Tidemand will drive smart and hold on to his lead aswell :)
