Wrc2 2016

What would be the problem with only registering as a team and not a manufacturer? A 'team' still scores points does it not?

You can't score points as a team if your car isn't use by a manufacturer too.
So if M-Sport will not compete WRC2016 as a manufacturer, DMACK WRT can't register as a team.

ok. from the translation i understood that Dmack Team can score points.

I'm not convinced about that interpretation that the manufacturer needs to be registered. The rule is a bit loose.

It could be interpreted as using the same homologation. Given that Citroen aren't registering as a manufacturer, they can't change the homolgation of the car anyway (it's fixed for development in 2016), and the cars need to just be the same as when it was a manufacturer car....

WRC Team:
7.3.1 Will be eligible to score Manufacturers’ points only if cars of the same homologation number (homologation extension 100/01 KSR and its WR extension or homologation extension 200/01 WRC or homologation extension 300/01 WRC) are used as those of a Manufacturer under Art. 7.2 or as a new Manufacturer under Art. 4.1.2.

Thanks dimviii...Interesting article but i dont understand it correctly due to the translation, can someone translate better? M-sport doesnt want to enter as a manufacturer?

oh it seems we are in a wrong topic too

You should find english version (original source) in Motorsport Monday, digged by Martin Holmes.

We need Simmi for that, i think he has MM.

E: never mind, i confused it with motorsport news

Anyone heard anything about Protasov for 2016?

[Andre Oliveira]

My guess that he is the Official R5 driver of M-Sport

Unlikely, especially if they're trying to find a drive for Evans.
