There is absolutely no chance that Ogier will only do the SWRC in 2012. If need be he'd have a customer Ford - with his current improving trajectory he cannot afford a year out to let Mikko and JML get comfy before Loeb retires.Quote:

I think that in Netherlands Eric Bolhaar is sponsored by Dutch army.Quote:

its two possibilities: last year solberg brothers had a "tank race" at solberg extreme show.
the other is a sponsorshipdeal with the army, the army uses the boys and cars in promo, advertising, shows and so on. different athletes in norway has deals with the army, but they normal have a background in the army.
the money he would be getting from VW, he could pay for the season himself.Quote:
