    It would most certainly be a 4th car. Tommi sure ain't dropping anyone he's picked himself.

    I edited the post after I read the tweet comments.

    4th car with the purpose for testing for Turkey makes most sense.

    That's great news!!!

    Took him half a year to get upto speed in 2017, hopefully he can be on the pace in Sardinia but I don't have big expectations. One of my favourite drivers, shame he never realised his full potential in the WRC.

    Juho really started to get his groove by the second half of the season. TGR says he's possibly the best test driver they've had so it says a lot about his style. I think of him as the Finnish Meeke. He just needs to work things out.. the speed and talent is there. Happy to see him back. I heard about him driving earlier this year ...
