1) Ogier World Champion 5th time. Points gap won't be that big like past few seasons, but still...Meeke will make mistakes, Latvala is Latvala, Neuville turning into Latvala's style driver - fast but not very strong minded...
2) M-Sport win manufacturers title. Ogier still be The Best, and Tanak will win event or two. When Tanak fail Evans could be good enough wingman for Ogier. Citroen - one mans army, Hyundai - no strong leader, they only has chance of they have really better car; Toyota - lack of experience. (WIN-ish)
3) Toyota will be faster than many expects, they win some podiums. (WIN)
4) No serious problems with reliability, or increased number of big crashes. But there will be much more minor incidents like bit too wide and rear stuck into something, or cut too much in third/fourth corner of group of corners, due to higher corner speed, and broken suspension/transmission (FAIL - Citroen have major problems)
5) We will hear about plans of new/comeback manufacturer in WRC or WRC2 category.Last edited by Mintexmemory; 23rd July 2017 at 13:13.
Like I said before... Now I have a feeling he is more and more keen to actualy lead the team out of this sport anyway. We all know where his true passion lays. I just hope that they stay here as long...
WRC main class in 2025
