Actually you’re forgetting the japanese, who already defeat the germans on global market and are quite ahead of them on the e motion business, despite keeping a massive presence in almost every forms of motorsport…that’s what you get when you’ve a notorious Petrolhead leading a car company. Well done Toyoda!

Honestly I can’t see the point of praising a bunch of boring economists and accountants that took over Europe’s larger automotive group in order to run it like a grocery. Even washing machines industry executives are more creative and brave than current VW board members.

To the hell with those guys…Rally goes on and ’17 still looks to be the start of another fantastic WRC era!
