Wrc2 2018

Yes, that would also mean that during recce his codriver would be driving...not something clever in that level.

18 also for Germany

pucky54 is right. In Germany you are allowed to obtain a driving license at 17 years of age. But I´m not sure if this implicates that foreigners are allowed to drive at this age as well.

Sometimes it's possible to get an exception. For example here in CZ it's 18 limit but some drivers started on Barum at the age of 17 (Klausz, Kruuda at least).

You can have a third person in the car on the recce, Petter drives for Oliver in Latvia.

Haha why Petter don't drive races too instead of Oli... Just a joke.

And that's what Kalle, Harri and Risto did. How else are you suppose to recce without driver driving himself? Driver writes his own notes? lol

[Tarmop]

Hah, the best place to make a mistake with one word. Codriver as co-passenger was the word i meant. Still, not THE drivers point of view 100%. Driving in a factroy team and top level (ok, almost) quite risky... maybe even pointless waste.

However I do think that WRC2 should be untouched in the current form. BUT, the ERC should lighten up which classes should be allowed, just in the mission to sort out the fast young guys, whom in the future could be runners up for WRC2, after having some of the needed experiences from ERC.

Hopefully R4 cars will give a help; even if they’ll not be cheap to buy, they seem affordable to run (and rent) and competitive enough for young drivers starting an international career.

Earlier there was a crazy rumor of Kopecky going to Hyundai, but surely it sounded weird...hard to imagine him on any other brand (I know he's driven other cars years ago)

When they signed Mikkelsen, it was almost sure this will not happen...

[Watson]

When they signed Mikkelsen, it was almost sure this will not happen...

But that was mostly down to Citroen being too obsessed with signing Ogier and being too toothless in the end as well as Hyundai trying to get back in the title race with a hail mary operation. Also Mikkelsen is just too good of a driver not to be picked up by anyone.
