Great to see Mads in an R5 for season, good step for WRC2. Now let's get Paddon in an i20 and Breen in a new Fiesta and take it to the Skodas properly!

Season 2019 starts in Rally Sweden with Skoda Fabia R5. Last time with Skoda 1,5 years ago was unforgettable. ”It´s nice to go Sweden and I´m really looking forward the rally. Our plans for the season are still open, but in Rally Sweden we are driving with Skoda.”

:D He hasn't gone anywhere, just focusing on different things in M-Sport than rallying. I bet he still was up there deciding the drivers as much as before.

As for why Elfyn and not Mads, maybe they think Elfyn has been loyal to the team helping Ogier and having years of experience of the team whereas Mads has been elsewhere for the past two years. Both Mads and Elfyn had two podiums last year.
