Rally.it contacted Mikkelsen that explained his versione of facts.

Btw, it almost confirms Lundefaret's insights.
at last 2 paragraphs cant understand what he said.
It sums up the situation we all know and then says that they contacted Mikkelsen who answered them with this statement.
"Actually I'm not surprised that Ole changed the driver, he asked me a new contract, longer, of about 2 or 3 years, and an increase of the salary considering that from when he came back everything went better for me. I've improved my driving style, more precise and with less errors and therefore less crashes, I've reached very good results and won our first WRC event in Spain.
All this was conflicting with the programs of the company who takes care of my rally interests, the Even Management. They're training a good codriver and trying to bring him in the WRC soon, I think in 2017. Now we have two choices, or we find a free codriver for one year or we will accelerate the training of the young guy and bring him with us one year earlier, just from Rally Montecarlo 2016."
It's strange Mikkelsen answered them and none of others magazine. It didn't even use inverted commas. But this is what the article says.
At the end of the article the author backs Floene choice because he thinks he has all the rights to make such requests and that codrivers are not broiler chickens.
Of course Co-Drivers can have a choice! Why wouldn't they. They too are making a living, it's their job. If you can't get a good deal then you move on!
probably Ola knew that at next year he will be without seat,when Veibys co-driver would be ready for the big league.Ostbergs situation gave him the chance for better? money and more years contract.
Jaeger to codrive Mikkelsen, Floene with Ostberg, Andersson with Tidemand. If Axelsson goes with Veiby we close the circle and we all can move on.
Anders Jęger is Mikkelsens new co-driver.
So then 1 driver is left, @ocveiby.
Who will he hire, Axelsson, or a new norwegian talent?
Does Jaeger has any family relations with the management of EVEN?
