“I find it quite amusing sitting at home reading the rumours and always wondering where’s that come from." - Hayden sums up silly season quite well, good to know the drivers get some entertainment from it too.

If Paddon would go to M-Sport, it would mean Hyundai would have offered only a half season. Who would do that half season in that case? Huttunen?

Huttunen might be a bit too green to share the third car with Sordo. I'd say it would be better for both, Hyundai and Huttunen himself, that the team will have "Östberg" in the third car with Dani, so the young Finn could focus on WRC2 title-chase and have the occasional fourth WRC in 3-4 selected events.

If this is the case, then it may even be Hyundai that find themselves on the back foot.
Toyota will have an ex msport, and an ex Citroen driver on their books with knowledge of those cars, Citroen will have an ex Toyota and ex msport driver, and msport will have an ex Citroen and ex (or possibly shared) Hyundai driver. Hyundai look like they remain with drivers, with the exception of mikkelsen with limited knowledge of a dodgy Citroen, that only know the Hyundai.
In this scenario, it may be Hyundai's best option to have Ostberg in a shared drive with Sordo, having prior knowledge of both the C3 and fiesta.Last edited by Norm75; 15th October 2018 at 12:57.

Yes I fear so too, you just need to look at the new cost for tourists to get into Venice and when everyone sees the amount of money being made others will soon follow, and prices will go up. As...
