    With Raimund Baumschlager being also one of the main test drivers, BRR is going to be the prime customer team again - They will have already lots of experience with the car straight from the beginning.

    Johan Kristoffersson in Polo R5 will be interesting. He has big potential.

    KMS will use more than one driver to get the best development data back to VW. Printsport also has a good relationship with EVEN Management, so lets see who will drive where!

    EVEN stregthen the KMS rally know how:

    I think that the engine performance need to be judged on the complete engine package, not on ''the bore''. The intake, exhaust, turbo, cooling... are from such a great importance to have it all optimised for that engine.
    Citroen decided to stay with that engine so they must be conviced that it will be possible to have a good performing engine.
