[WRC] News & Rumours 2019
Lappi also says in the podcast that they’re already thinking for next year. Both because the year has gone so bad for him but also that the required parts cannot be homologated before that.

Yes Mikkelsen will likely do Germany and not Spain. Which is actually weird in its own way since Loeb is now doing 2 tarmac rallies.
Funny how Adamo just now said it's strange Loeb struggles with i20 on tarmac... after Mikkelsen went from 2nd place on tarmac to last WRC speed the year before.
Loeb went from winning a rally to 2nd last WRC (only Lappi was slower) and basically his worst tarmac rally in terms of pace since he started driving in WRC.
Surely Breen who afaik doesn't have a single tarmac podium can't be expected to shine in I20 when he was 5-7th in C3 on same surface and the other two have 1st and 2nd. But hey Adamo can make some weird decisions (latest being Breen instead of Paddon in Finland).

Rally Japan candidate WRC event announced there will be 2 manu cars, a Yaris (driven by Katsuta) and an i20 without naming the driver.
The event is the weekend before Australia, which is why I think it's unlikely that Neuville drives cause he will be important in Australia no matter what title they are fighting for.
Sorry if that point wasn't clear.Last edited by mknight; 24th July 2019 at 19:47.
