Rally Discussion and Bar Talk Thread

Sordo is very close friend with Tänak and that connection wouldnt suprise me at all. Last season we all remember that comment when Tänak prefered Sordo as his teammate over Meeke.

from google translate i understand that Ogier asked for a seat at hyundai and Adamo refused?

His most coveted piece for the 2020 World Cup, after having refused the glove that the Ogier himself threw at mid-year.

Even for spanish speaking guys this article may be hard to understand as some parts sound a bit incredible and shouldn’t be taken literally, especially the 'Ogier throwing down the glove to Adamo' one (probably just a joke between them during Rally Germany).

Anyway, maybe Sordo influence was actually important for Tanak move but more than their casual meeting with Adamo it’s interesting to note that Martin apparently talked to Adamo during Finland and Tanak managed to test the i20 before Wales.

Lots of material to include on Tanak movie, part 2…

PSA and FCA have fully merged 50-50. There is Peugeot, Citroen, Opel, Fiat and Lancia now under the same roof gaining a lot of money and none of that rich history will be in WRC.

Possibly Tanak takes No. 8 again on 1 and will have time to take it, he has plenty of time and knows that it is ..

Tänak renuncia al '1' de campeón (Renuncia ademas por respeto a su amigo Ogier),,clase especial como su pilotaje..Nº 8 = Number One...
