You are right, I misread.
And french is my first language: shame on me.
I think we can only see Solberg with Mikkelsen moving to VW for the next year. The others will want a shot at the WRC title.Quote:

I agree with solberg, but I think VW number 2 will be hanninen:-)Quote:

I also heard on the weekend that Ogier to Ford is more or less a done deal.
I hope Hanninen's career is not damaged by competition for only two VW seats. I would guess that as Ogier is a smart guy he would want to jump into a big money team as soon as the car (Polo) has had the gremlins worked out by the Norwegians and the Finn.

Ogier would never sign such deal in my opinion.
Volkswagen would be perfect for Ogier. He would get that nr 1 position he needs!

Good news. The most important thing that he's not at ford. :D
It's good that Ogier doesn't have to deal with uncertain future of Ford and Mini and we will see him in, hopefully, a competitive works car in near future. But it's terrible for fans that we won't see Ogier on WRC stage, at least not on WRCars, next year.
