Could be interesting to see other m-sport drivers in other cars. Seems like latvala is "back on track", maybe østberg, novikov, tanak and the likes would perform better in a different environment?

Now I throw in a torch again. And a swede of course.
What about Mattias Ekström? I think Hyundai have the money to pay him if he want to leave DTM, which I think he should do for another motorsport. His abilities in rallying is well documented and he has very good experience from circuitracing as well.
The only thing - he´s not a youngster anymore, but still he would make a big contribution to Huyndai WRC-team."Reis vas pät pat kaar vas kut"

Where and when did Mattias Ekström ever put down a decent result? I can't remember... I remember some outings with Fabia WRC, but he never really impressed, as far as I remember. And why should they pay him some crazy salary in stead of taking one of the many great drivers with lots of potential who are willing to drive for free?

2004 - won production category in Sweden by 27 seconds from Bäcklund, 12th overall; 24th in Spain, 1st in production category but out of only 6 starters (Trivinho was second), 8 JWRC crews ahead of him
2005 - 10th in Sweden in Fabia WRC, 2 minutes behind Paasonen on same car
2006 - accident in Sweden from 5th place; 11th in Germany, 17,5 minutes behind Loeb, 5 minutes behind MacHale
Since then he drove no WRC event. That is already 7 years. Do You really want to suggest him as a works driver for Hyundai?Stupid is as stupid does. Forrest Gump

Let's take Valentino Rossi then, he did some rally's and is very competitive in a different motorsport series too.

You can hardly go simpler than current Rally1 in most of the mentioned areas. Sure the engines could be based on a roadcar block and the aero could be made even smaller (it's already pretty...
