Silly Season 2022

Where have they said that? I only saw they hope to have 3 works cars and that there is customer interest but nothing concrete.

Some intervju with dirthfish.
3 Main cars, 1-2 cars for paydrivers. Greensmith has to be in the paydriver team.

I would say that’s just heavy interpretation of the interview

BTW I don't think Adamo is that crazy to give Solberg a seat

Most people accept Fourmaux will be full-time due to his Red Bull and FFSA support, so now it depends if Greensmith has the money to go again.

Msport are a joke if/ when they confirm Greensmith in the 3rd car.

Oliver need same order from team boss as Petter got: Get to the finish line on every rally. You can win them later, now it is all about getting experience.
Malcolm was pretty clear, and that went well for Petter.

Phil Mills had a sit-down segment with Howard Davies (ex Gwyndaf Evans co driver) and said he and Peter will be the gravel crew for Oliver pandemic allowing. So, he will get some help.

So it seems, but taking a second look, there are many ways of polishing the juwel of Norweigan driver. He has some areas to improve. One is maybe making more exact pace notes.

He will for sure be a winner. Every driver needs to crash out to learn.

This is actually really interesting comparison.

Petter started under Malcolm which was like this. Then after 1 year he unexpectedly left to Subaru, seemingly to charge for results as soon as possible. What followed were almost 2 years with lots of crashes before he got somewhat stable, but he never got really stable (which cost him 2004 title and almost 2003 one (Corsica)).

Oliver could continue with Skoda in 2021 and go for WRC2 title like Kalle did + for example ERC. Instead he went immediatelly to Hyundai with a WRC starts promise and what follows is a string of crashes.

There are two real dangers in short term:
- stopped driver development
- his near future is completely based on Adamo being his fan. If Adamo gets kicked he might find it hard to get a decent drive for a while.

Oliver's father will be the end of his career if he continues to involve himself as deeply as he does now.

He needs to let Oliver develop a bit himself.

Personally, technically and mentally

And every driver needs a good car and a team that listens to what the driver needs, there's no coincidence there was two wrecked i20's last week i think...
