M-Sport will get dispensation if they want. Ford also got the GT pushed through in WEC, won Le Mans this year and that's not built yet.


For Ostberg to have THREE options for WRC next year in the current climate is a bit of a mystery. I think we'll see him in a private Fiesta in that third seat. Ott to M-Sport works team is barely even a secret any more. He's basically their lead test driver at the moment.

What I'm slightly concerned about is whether we'll even see a Dmack WRC presence next year. I've seen reports on another forum they are hemorrhaging money. Not sure if it's true, but it would hardly be a surprise. I doubt Malcolm will want them on his works cars next year either even though they have a successful relationship going. I hope they can pull something together as it's a great opportunity for a driver as Ott has shown this year.

OnlyRally - where have you read anything about Dmack in 2017?
