Someone posted an entry list for WRGB on a Facebook forum and it has Greensmith in R5PRO..
No surprise WRC entries, but a strong R5 list

We're switching to a Hyundai i20 R5 for @WalesRallyGB 2019. A few weeks ago in Mid Wales, I tried the car out for the first time. Here's a short video from the test...

Indeed! I wonder whether he felt under appreciated by M-Sport? Maybe not though as he's still been retweeting M-Sport Fiesta stuff on Twitter recently. Quite a move to make, considering he stands a good chance of winning the BRC title this weekend in the old Fiesta... I've seen it said on Twitter that Hyundai had a sale on! I'm not sure if that's the truth or a joke, but the mass switch of the British rallying 'establishment' to Hyundai has got to be down to something of note.

There are a few other curiosities. I'm rubbish at stuff like this, but with three American drivers on the list, is that the most Americans entered on a WRC rally since Mexico 2007 (five entered there)? Also, with the Solbergs (shame Oscar isn't on there too!) and Tidemand, does anybody know when the last WRC rally was to have so many members of the same family entered?

One hell of an R5-lineup, fun to follow Cave and Edwards on home turf against elite R5-drivers.

[Oops!]

Hyundai are putting a massive effort into sales, they want a piece of Msports market. Their car is'nt perfect yet, but their getting there........

And three women drivers.
