    Private team can't make new homologations to C3. Citroen Racing should help with updates though if some team would like to run the cars. But I'd say it is very unlikely to happen.

    regarding private teams, the Wrc cars of today are very expensive to buy and maintain, so I am not too optimistic. Would love privat teams to happen, but all I Could see is Citroens, and not many would like to drive them.
    maybe some Fords are possible, but I Am guessing few others.
    If their dad's would be involved it won't happen, they did not get along back in the days!

    I would be very very surprised if someone didn't look at specialists for some of the rallies given how three are new to the calendar this year after a time away, Japan, Safari and New Zealand.

    Would be a huge blunder I believe if someone didn't pick up Paddon for New Zealand for example.

    Tommi Makinen could be answer for Safari. For Japan they don't need any specialist as while Loeb will attend it. Ogier will be there anyway.

    Tommi already hired Juha Kankkunen.

    and yes he actually did. Juha is helping because he knows something about African events.

    Me too I have a feeling that this will be the case. Except if Ogier will re-sign. Then Neuville is screwed.

    Based on recent events I'm not sure if it means anything, but Neuville has a contract with Hyundai for 2021 as well.

    Ogier had it too for 2020 and broke it. Meeke, Paddon, Mikkelsen, Sordo had it and what happened. I mean they will not probably break it, he will himself (we all know how Neuville like is).

    If Neville gets beaten by Tanak, why would Toyota want him?
