    Hyundai's actions should not have come as a shock to any of the Solberg's. The problem is that they live in their own little bubble....

    With MSport only Rally1 makes sense.

    He could probably get a Fabia for Rally2 for free or even getting paid and if he wants to pay himself he can as well drive own Polo rather than the Fiesta.

    I think doing close to all rounds in Rally2 would be best.

    I agree. And in a good Rally2 car (Skoda).

    Once being in RC1 car, nothing is better than continue in RC1 car. Stepping down at this point isnt´t getting things better.
    That´s a general rule.

    I dont agree with you. It doesnt work as general rule for sure. And even for Oliver should be better to move to R5...

    Remember how it worked for Tänak and Evans?
