For me question mark is also are they making that much benefit when renting the Rally1 cars: it has become some much expensive that I’m wondering if they don’t rent it at cost with very low margin sometimes, just to make them run.
And I would be a bit cautious, by experience, with Francois Delecour claims; all the more that he puts a message on his Facebook account about the Puma and then deleted it. Maybe things are not that simple (for example, a conditional possibility on a 3rd car if no better client, i.e. not a one-shot client, appears).
Last point is that I found it very surprising that we still don’t know the 3rd Puma driver if this rumor is true:
- either it’s like last year with M-Sport having entered a TBD car in the entry list because negotiations still ongoing (Greensmith or maybe Mikkelsen are the most obvious possibilities except a surprise?); this last minute call may explain some points about Delecour’s situation.
- or a pure client (maybe one of Serderidis rounds as he did it a lot of times in his R5 era?)Last edited by Danny0405; 17th December 2022 at 09:44.

So that is already 5 new Fabias confirmed in Monte if I count correctly.

It is not strange that Delecour can’t get the Puma but goes with super rare new Fabia instead a Ford Fiesta?

I think Bulacia, Solberg and Delecour confirmed? Gryazin seems highly likely as he did the warm up event last week. Not sure on Lindholm or Pajari for Monte?
Seems Skoda were under-promising and over delivering on orders for the new car as Orsak and Eurosol have theirs already too.

No Lindholm at Monte, not sure about Pajari. Possibility that Miele will start with a new one there aswell.

It doesn’t sound like that but Rich literally confirms it “I totally understand that perspective, but at the same time if we actively push back on everything and force a manufacturer to leave...
