"They say he is a different man going into this season with something to prove.[/QUOTE]

I get that impression and I really think Evans will benefit from running in WRC2 this year. I would not be surprised at all if he wins rallys in the future.

To be fair, MW has made the best of a bad situation with regards to Tanak and Evans' (not so great) performances last year... He has replaced them with a safe banker (Mads) and a potential hot shot (Eric), whilst allowing Evans and Tanak to drive his cars, gaining experience and getting someone else to pay for it. If they start to shine then he can simply bring them back into the main team whenever he wants.

I know a lot of people moan that 'he's in it for the money' etc. etc. but, the championship is much better with his cars/ teams in it.
