2015 News and Results

[RS]

The question is if Peugeot continues at all?

I suppose they will only continue if they are confident they can fix the reliability problems.

I wonder whether Skoda UK would like to come back to ERC..

I'd like to see them back, but mainly to compete in the British championship when it relaunches in 2016

In the Corse thread Pluto seemed to speculate that Skoda might have a different lineup next year. I can't see a reason not to continue with Kopecky and Lappi personally.

Maybe some other ERC regulars are looking for a better car next year though?

You will see. Lineup of manufacturer teams is not sure yet (if they will continue).

[PLuto]

Why Pluto, is RRC not allowed next year?

You will see. There will be some changes in ERC regulations for next year and one of them is regarding RRC...

And that makes sense, since the RRC is a WRC light. Engine power is more or less the same, but reliability, and suspension strength are areas where RRC is better than R5.

That was the idea of Regional Rally Car to be WRC light. RRC car is good and doesn't break. On the other hand, R5 is cheaper, but breaks down every second rally. So what is better?

As already supposed Wiegand´s future uncertain - he himself talks of a possible return to motorbike driving, where he orginally comes from:

Would be no great surprise. He's good, but not good enough to be ERC champion or progress any further IMO. Is there another German youngster Skoda DE may be interested in?

Riedemann ? Griebel ?

Riedemann? I don´t think so - his WRC3 results were not too convincing.
