While news of Skoda Motorsport plans for 2018 are waiting to be announced, they have carried out winter rally tests run by the John Haugland Winter Rally School.
These were carried out by Ole Christian Veiby and Kalle Rovanpera at the disused Norwegian Dagali airport.

Toyota?

The south american Etios R5

Soon the R5 category have passed 600 produced cars! That is impressive.

250 Fords, 200 Skodas, aprox 120 PSAs, 35 Hyundais, 12 Mitsubishis, 2 Toyotas.
We will welcome VW and PSAs new C3, and the Proton in 2018. Maybe also a int homologation of the Mitsubishi.

That the R5 has been a success, is an understatement!!

Maybe we should only count FIA cars, if some private company calls their car R5 it does´t mean it´s R5. Both Proton and Opel are more R5 than African Toyota.

Yes, we should, but in this case 14 R5's without FIA homoogation is nothing against 605 R5's with FIA homologation.

What about S2000 cars? It's only few years while R5's take lead, and S2000 already almost extinct in even regional rallies.

[Mirek]

The overall numbers of S2000 cars are likely similar. The fact they disappeared near completely is quite logical because FIA stopped new homologations of them already 6 years a go. That's a long time in motorsport.

New Top Dog?

New Top Dog?

Likely, as they will have been able to take old top dog Fabia and further optimise it.
