    I don't think Gardemeister has the killer instinct. But I'm sure he'd do much better than Atko.

    I don't think SWRT will throw away Atkinson considering all the effort they are putting into him (i.e. sending him to train with Tommi or to Ireland last year). There is clearly a difference in SWRT committment into Atkinson unlike in 2004 with Hirvonen. And as a Subaru fan, I can live with what Chris has done so far....
    Waiting for Subaru to come back to be :champion:

    As I said in the Portugal thread, I think it would be good for Atko to leave SWRT.

    I don't think it's coincidence that Hirvonnen did poorly at Subaru and now Atkinson is suffering the same fate. I say leave and try a Focus or a Xsara. Going to Suzuki may not be such a good idea, as they are going to take a few years of development unless they are committing the same sort of resources as Citroen/Peugeot did.

    If he does get the axe from SWRT, they'd be mad to get Garde. They need to find someone to replace Solberg when he retires in a few years and Garde will be retiring at the same time. That's not a very good succession plan.

    Well Garde and Mikko has the same manager, after the way they treated Mikko, do you really belive he would even try to get Garde a seat from Subaru??

    Subaru as an entire team are in quite a mess right now, which makes it hard to pinpoint what will solve their problems.
    And getting rid of Chris won't solve any problems of theirs.

    Nice one
    Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.
