Nice surprise to see Greg Munster on the entry list:)
Thank you, Andre! I forgot about this.
Lindholm's use of the loophole was cheeky. This just seems wrong.
Well sadly no more surprises. Somehow I expected some more "paydrivers" for (cheap) last run with 2017 cars.
Only good one is Crugnola driving and also as WRC3 (and not outside of WRC3 like some other Italians last year).
Else the competition in RC2 is just a shadow of last year in terms of quality.
Pretty funny with Gryazian driving for "Movisport SRL" against Toksport with likely Toksports car, after already using MSport Fiesta for same purpose. Obviously WRC2 team title is a bit of a joke, but I wonder if there is some money associated with the win or why teams care at all.
its just because of the stupid rules keeping him from participating in wrc3.Quote:

Precisely that.
Let's see if anything is done...
Should think that WRC3 going Rally3 will remove this particular rule, but what made Lefebvre do WRC3 instead of entering as non-priority driver?
Gilles de Turckheim is the best friend of Julien Ingrassia. I think he wants to participate in this rally because this is the last rally for Ingrassia.Quote:

Starting at the front.Quote:
