don't argue with Pluto about the things he knows!
even if you try, then prepare yourself for the discussion... i.e. Total not Panta this year for WRC, tires most often you use different, etc, etc.

Actually I wasn’t trying to compare different series costs but only to say how pointeless it’s to judge drivers about the way they get money to run; as long they pay the bills they’re all entitled to do it, no matter if its 'mammy or daddy' (btw, why not the wife or the gf?), their ASN or a bunch of sponsors supporting them.
But once we got here I’d like to ask about MSport runing deals. Can someone say how much more a JWRC competitor will spend on a series program with MSport than on a ERC U27 with, f.i., Sainteloc on a 208? The same for a WRC2 program on an MSport Fiesta rather than ERC U28 on a Motorsport Italia Fabia or any other car from a small scale team.
It's always amazing to see the number of JWRC and WRC2 cars that MSport rent and service at WRC events; maybe their larger scale, besides being the actual car builders, allows them to offer better deals than the competition, which may became tempting for drivers at the hour of choosing what series to run.
