Oh, yes correct, sorry for mixing it up. I did not take part in those events. So there are three possibilities for the organizers: Superally, No Superally and Superally but without being able to score pointsQuote:

With a total of three ADAC Rallye Deutschland victories (in 1994, 1996 and 1997), Dieter Depping is considered to be the most successful German rally driver.
Kevin Abbring will join Ogier in a Volkswagen-prepared Skoda Fabia for Monte Carlo:
Kevin Abbring Volkswagen junior at Rally Monte Carlo - Volkswagen Motorsport
So far that is the only even Abbring is confirmed for.

If VW is really interested in Kevin Abbring, then he should stay away from a Citroen DS3 WRCar or a Peugeot 207 S2000, and try to get a program with a Skoda Fabia instead.
They're defiantely interested in him, but I think they'll be auditioning drivers for most of 2012, just as they did at the end of 2011. He's running in the Monte, but I don't think they'll want to tip their hand too soon. They should probably limit Abbring to the European rounds, and find some local talent for the fly-aways.
Not much in my opinion. His start in Monte although in VW car is payed by his own sponsors.Quote:

You are not right if You speak about second seat for Polo :) AFAIK Juho Hänninen has testing of VW Polo WRC in his program so I think he is still in. Than there is Sepp Wiegand who is sent by VW to IRC and South Africa to gain experience.
