I don't have a definitive answer to that question... But certainly not the Germans, that's for sure.

If the mathematical equation of the car had a solution, the Germans are the closest to that solution... But cars aren't mathematics and can't be understood by calculus. All off topic I guess but I have never been a fan of the German approach.

I like the Italians and French but also some of the Japanese efforts. Korea is coming closer to something likeable.

Americans have always been too big and too brash for my taste.

China has so far only been able to give me the chuckles car wise. We'll see about the future.

I've liked Peugeot for a long time (minus the 207) due to their rally programme when I was a kid so...

Now back to WRC stuff.

Maybe the VW budget might see some slahes if there are any proactive heads in VAG group (smart group that uses the abbreviation for vagina btw) but other than that we shouldn't expect any major changes
