Further interest added by EKSRX tweeting something along the lines of "well done for announcing 3 drivers, we'll have to catch up before the season starts"

Confirmed. Reinis Nitišs as a 3rd EKSRX driver.

[MrJan]

EKSRX have 4 cars, and are always tweeting like this, did the same hole last season. There will be some quest drviers in car number 3 this year.

Wrong. Nitiss announced as third driver.

[MrJan]

Does Petter have 16 or has/will he managed to get hold of the 17 version?

I think it's a mix, 17 Polo combined with the 16 to suit RX regs.

[NoName]

Wrong. Nitiss announced as third driver.

Yes. Awesome =) Will be a strong team. My mistake

[Alpha]

But only two cars qualify for championship points?

[MrJan]

Yes. Awesome =) Will be a strong team. My mistake

Yeah should be good, I think he's a stronger driver than Topi but will be interesting to see.

Some hints at some other news later today too, not sure which team though, could be EuroRX or one of the support series.
