I highly doubt Macus wants to start from scratch at this point of his career. But if as a team manager or something other than driver.....

Same here, he has been driving so many years so it would be difficult to get motivated, i cant see him as team manager either, when he stops with driving he stops i think.

Not a really good video, more a kind of promotion film from Suzuki Sport, but in the end there is some action of the SX4 WRC on gravel

I read about various tests with the new SX4 WRC both on Suzuki's website and on wrc.com. But who exactly is testing for them? Any drivers known?

'The Monster' recently won again the Race to the Sky hillclimb in New Zealand on board his Suzuki prototype. He had more than a dozen WRC outings in his career, but the guy is in his mid-50s, I doubt he will drive the SX4 himself. Tajima is president of Suzuki Motorsport.

Yeah, make with information about the new car people!

Monster is responsible for all the testing of the car. It is not exactly where they are happy with it as of recently, they are still pushing for a couple more things...Up until this stage I had my friend who works within the team tell me that no one apart from Monster has been out skidding the SX4 around....

Doesn't sound very smart action. They should instead have capable drivers whose knowledge of wrc-cars is thorough.

It looks like Monster is running a one man show, with a single man in command.

When it is good, it can bee relay good (like with the mighty 206), but when it is bad it is real bad (like with the convertible with a four speed gearbox)...

or here (direct link):

Alhough that´s not the vid I saw in Urheiluruutu, where it was more about Loeb than organizing the test stage.
