Honda Jazz S2000 for Australian Championship... Possible Honda enter in WRC???

No 4WD I presume? Looks good.

S2000 is 4WD

But the car is only 2WD. There is a G2 section (2WD) in the Aus Rally Championship.

I find that strange. I was under the impression that the ARC was heading towards a FWD 1600 format.

The Fastest Jazz In The World?

So, S2000 2WD??? Very strange...

Could be the start of something big?

How does the oil company from a socialist republic sponsor and F1 team?

On the 2012 driver line up:
VW should have at least 5 drivers: Mikkelsen, hanninen, German, Customer, a solberg seems unlikely at this stage. Who will be number 1 here?
Mini will have customers as well- no idea how many

So any news on Ford next year?
They bought a brand new huge head quarters in the middle of the season, they sure want to use it again next year!!!
