    So I think right now in terms of contracts we have:
    Signed through 2018: Paddon, Sordo, Meeke
    Signed through 2017: Latvala (with 2 year option), Camilli (with 1 year option), Mikkelsen? Ogier? (don't think these are public?)
    Mikkelsen got 3 year deal last year. I thing it's the same for Ogier.

    Cool. I never saw anything that said it was 3 years. Is there a link somewhere? Just 'several' years: http://www.wrc.com/en/wrc/news/june/...3--12-12-.html

    In @OfficialWRC news, @DMACK_Tyres could target a two car WRC team with @OttTanak and @ElfynEvans for 2017.

    So if single tyre supplier is a thing in 2017, we can guess it will be Dmack, no wonder after all, they've been putting so much money into the sport.

    I ha e changed opinion on this topic. I see more potential for a bit more uncertanty with more tyre brands involved. The only pro single providor could be price, but have no data to build an opinion if multiple providors will mean higher tyre budgets.

    Supposedly no Dmack weren't in favour of a control tyre. Yet WRC Promoter would seemingly happily force them out! Lunacy.
