Well, according to http://rajdy.autoklub.pl/news/mitsub...startuje,59526 Martin Berglund, who was supposed to drive Mitsubishi R5 on Vinterpokalen, said that their car wasn't accepted by the Swedish federation and it stops their rally program in the Swedish championship. In a bitter way he also sent his congratulations to all the people who were against this project.

Well, in his FB page, he said that, and then shared the news that I posted in here. I'm going to ask a friend of mine that knows him. Hope the project goes forward and can see this car running some ERC events as well.
Love the livery concept:

I interpret the facebook text so that they did not get the homologation peperwork ready for the first rally of the swedish championship, but hopes that SBF will get it finished for the next round.
As I interpret Berglund he was just pissed since he had planned to run the chapionship, and now misses a round.
i guess doing a national homologation also takes some time.
Does anybody have other news, or inside information?

Well, now it's confirmed that Opel Motorsport it's doing something, probably based on the OPC. The R5 car list is up to 6, if Hyundai it's really working on one as well.
Didn't MEM have mentioned something back in the day about a Proton R5 effort?

reason for non approval rumors say was TIG instead of MIG welded cage. So small potatoes to fix I guess! Originally Posted by Sulland
