It´s possible to do both Dakar and Monte, but of course a tight schedule, but Loeb is still young...

Now, we have to wait and see for the squad for next season.
1st car is clear with Breen full-season.
For 2nd car, as far as I understand, Greensmith is full-season. Not the best option fast-wise but, in M-Sport situation, the best performance-money ratio and personnally, I think he is not that bad (for example, considering the car, I don’t find him worst than Katsuta’s season)
Not clear after that. Hope Fourmaux to have a full-time seat even if he does some mistakes by the end of the year but I think more of a 10-round program or something like that (probably 2-3 rounds for Loeb and maybe Sweden for another driver such as Huttunen)
Loubet is evoked, not really convinced by his season and don’t really understand how he can obtain additional budget, but not idiot in a 4th car.

Ford will have 5 cars during the season. 3 Pumas full time for Fourmaux, Greensmith and Breen, a 4th shared between others (rumored Huttunen/Loeb) and a 5th car for whoever pays like Loubet/Kremer/whoever.

One number that says it all.
Stage wins in 2021:
Hyundai 114
Toyota 105
MSport 1 (ONE)
On last stage before PS on Safari where almost everyone was saving tires, stage only run once and the most rough of the day.

If it's enough reduction to enable some extra Rally1 cars with WRC Promotor help it's only a good thing if only for the next 18 months. WRC Promoter’s Senior Director of Sport, Peter Thul added:...
