And how much do we need live streaming for the Monte? Last year IRC was some of the best ive ever seen!

I doubt we will get live streaming on Monte 2012, Vladimir Antonov is busy right now :-)

Horror.

I kinda hope not, I dont think hes ready to go into WRC cars yet. If anything, surely the seat should go to ostberg? He has more experience and has already done a full year with the car, not to mention almost winning a rally.

I agree. I think Ostberg is a logical choice. Don't forget this is Malcolm we are dealing with so anything is possible. If Abu Dhabi has left as a backer maybe Henning could scrape some cash together and become the next Khalid? Petter is probably a bit much of a stretch. I was wondering if monster energy would talk more of a hand in sponsorship as Ken won't be around as much; or should say even less of a presence than he has now?

But I am with you on Ott, maybe not yet, Novikov would also be a bad choice at this stage

Hopefully he will use the Q8 Oil livery that was on his Sierra! We can only dream

Give the seat to Atko, he'll not ask a lot of money and we know he's fast

If it's not Tanak then it's a pilot who has to have some backing even Petter will have to bring that, it's already good their differences would be gone..

But if Petter is avaliable...I'd give the number 2 seat to him. Second choice would be Ostberg for me. But the news I have read on the other thread makes good sense - Ostberg and tanak in a new adapta team! That way we will see who is the best :) My moneys on Ostberg.

It would be good to see Atko back, but I think if hes to come back he needs to do it soon, theres a lot of competition for the few seats that are avaliable now!
