Citroën is officially returning to motor racing as a factory team, Formula E - https://www.media.stellantis.com/uk-...rmula-e-is-now
It's been said that a Lancia Rally2 will enter WRC2 in 2026.
Is it possible one could also be run in ERC ? And him being Italian, maybe Mabellini could be the driver ?
Another great success for Ford Fiesta Rally2. Estonian talent Romet Jurgenson wins the 5th round of Spanish championship:

Armstrong and Jurgenson are doing M-Sport proud with the old Fiesta.
Hopefully their successes will help the Fiesta Rally2 soldier on for one more season while the team presumably dedicates themselves to developing a new 2027 Car.

Rossel will be one of the drivers, and probably one or two Italians.
From this article, it's also clear that if the WRC goes to Roma, there will be some support coming from the promoter also: https://www.rallyssimo.it/2025/09/17...te-condizioni/
