I wonder what will become of the drivers? Or maybe it will be a repeat of the Kronos? Shame for Mikko, switching teams in fear of not having a seat the next year, only to not have a seat the following year!

If the JML to VW rumours are as true as they seem then maybe Mikko can jump straight back to Ford? Him and Petter would be a pretty consistent team which might actually have a chance at the manufacturer's title!Quote:

Yes, I think this could be his last year in WRC. A win or two could change the situation, but realistically there are too many young guns waiting to fill his shoes.It will be a shame because Petter brings so much more to the WRC than just his speed. Anyway, at this rate and if all the rumours are to be beleived, will there be a WRC next year anyway? Hope not , but it is all a bit `up in the air`!!!!Quote:

In manufacturer seat must be podium regulars, not money wasters.
well, sadly maybe you have right, but it should be to stupid, even for m.wilson. sordo is same speed, mikkelsen, østberg and partly novikov is right behind. but tanak, neuville, paddon etc is not even close petters speed, not to start to think about his experience and showman skills.Quote:

I don't think win or two will change the status much, of course win is win, but look what happened in Greece. He at least is consistently scoring points (except Greece)Quote:
