At least Subaru sales in Estonia are up 333 % this year :) Other manufacturers (except) Škoda have seen major decline ...

C-mon Subaru, stay! Subaru and rallying are a perfect match!

If Citroen and Ford leave too, then Wilson and Rautenbach may well start fighting for wins as they seem to be the few ones, who can find enough funding. :p :

Petter and Chris without a drive.Very sad indeed.

Something is definitely brewing. Two different sources here in Norway, with close links to someone around Petter, tells me Petter is informed Subaru is closing down the WRC team. Announcements tomorrow - and it will be a shock decision, says same sources.

Hard to believe...

Hard to believe, since Subaru sales and shares are up this year!!
