    I just hope he can perform as he did in Finland last year. After that, he crashed on every rally. He's only gonna test the strenth of the car against trees.

    Subaru can't afford a dummy doll? (Somebody call Buster from "Mythbusters"!)

    How did Subaru fire him? He was (and still is) a paying driver for god sakes, he chooses where to drive or where not
    And for the time being, he chose not to drive with the S12B and wait for the probably more competitive S14.

    I believe the official reason was that there was no agreement in place to run a car for Pons.

    Most take that to mean that Pons's backers either didn't want to waste more money on Pons, or on the Subaru.
