Really excited about this news - its been on the cards for quite a while now since Mikkelsen drove the Fabia last year. His pace in France was sensational, and with a mix of best car and best tyres, I think he could win the IRC next year. His tarmac pace is better than people give him credit for and his gravel pace has been clear for years now.

i think, andreas has a big budget, so skoda uk prefer andreas for this budget.
i think, he is a good driver, and will win a rally next year, but not can be a irc champion.

I am seeing that Skoda has some top (at least for IRC) drivers like Mikkelsen,Kopecky,Loix,Hanninen and Peugeot names like Bouffier,Neuville,Andreucci,Wilks......I am wondering if Ford will support
their Fiesta S2000 project with some equal names like above.....i heard
that maybe will sign with Basso ??? can anyone confirm ????

Hmm, interesting, but, of course, it's great news for Mikkelsen supporters! Now it's possible going for the 1st win next year, but I think not for the title yet..

Guys, do You know who and when was the first ever Škoda UK driver (called Škoda GB that time)? It was Norwegian John Haugland in 1970' (sometimes co-driven by Martin Holmes). History repeats itself. Maybe John has something to do with that?
