Interesting. the car is much closer to the Adam Cup philosophy than the previous R1 cars since it has sequential gearbox and LSD. It's not cheap but it shall be also much quicker than the DS3 R1.

It will be held in Czech rallysprint championship 2014. One cup for Fiesta R1 and one for DS3 R1 I think.

Is Yaris R1 already homologated?

There are lots of them in France thanks to one-make cups but otherwise very few I think. Here in CZ it was only one Twingo last year. In 2013 few Citroën DS3 will join but I expect only two or three.

Are You sure they can homologate two different sets of shock absorbers?

I think that with new model of Fabia in 2014 Škoda will introduce also in-house developed R2 car. Personally I expect it to be equipped with 1.2 or 1.4 TSI engine. Depends on how the future...

I think that with R1 You can't modify stock suspension. You can change few minor things but nothing major. So it's more about the fact that suspension of stock cars is not suitable for gravel. That's...

Citroën officially sells DS3 R1 only as complete car for 25 thousand Euro without VAT.

And if I'm not mistaken Elfyn Evans will drive Fiesta R1 to make some competition ;)

That's no problem. They already admitted they would do both 208 and DS3 R5. I think it's rather easy to use same technology in two different bodyshells and for many reasons it makes sense to keep...

No, stock synchronized gearbox.

R1 is almost same car as N1. Although it's cheap to run, You can see very few such cars in national championships and I don't think it will change.
