I guess no one wanted DMACK tyres for next year, I wonder if they'll really be back after the sabbatical.

@Dmack-tyres
Just to be clear AGAIN ! We are not out of the 2018 WRC, we will be there for the eighth season with a new range of tyres for WRC, WRC2, WRC3, privateers and anyone else that wants to win !! https://t.co/fQJJMdvTjy

It's great to have Pirelli back. A brand with amazing rally heritage; nice to see Chinese owners respecting Pirelli independence.
DMack has been quite bold; it's not easy to challenge a giant like Michelin at the WRC! Leaving the manus target and developing their good work in the lower categories seems to be a sensible choice. Best luck to them.Rally addict since 1982

For sure in WRC2/RC2 we will see those 3 and maybe others also MRF? Hankook? Kumho?"quattro best 4wd rallycar ever"
