Yep, quite a puzzle...Sportmotores has managed to talk to an Opel Motorsport source and it was told this is a project Holzer Motorsport (their R2 partner) has been working on their own and it was now allowed by Opel to be presented, even if there is no confirmation when, and if, it’ll be homologated…

So it seems the Opel R5 wasn't just a rumor after all. Let's hope the extra time spent was on developing it properly.
Unless they are just going to show off a concept I wonder how the hell they have managed to develop it away from prying eyes!

That Proton looks like the crossing of a Polo and a Fiesta gone horribly wrong.

Skarderud called people of southern Europe 'monkeys' whilst seen to be making a monkey gesture. Skarderud did not dispute the report, nor did he show an understanding of how his behaviour caused...
