So Ekstrøm is out of DTM to do World RX full time. Audi backing, with the new S1. No news about team partner yet, but Bakkerud is the obvious choice.

Mattias Ekström announced today that he have decided to retire from DTM and that EKSRX will do the full 2018 championship series.
WOHOOOOOW!!! The story continues!!! Mattias is all-in for 2018 @FIAWorldRX. Stay tuned for more news during the next days. #EKSRX #WorldRX #Rallycross
As @mattiasekstroem announces his retirement from #DTM and his renewed commitment to @FIAWorldRX with @EKSRX
We're delighted to have @mattiasekstroem and @EKSRX with us full time in 2018. We're expecting many more great moments like these this season! #WorldRX
The press conference can be seen again at https://www.facebook.com/EKSRX/videos/758298741028952/
It marks the end of an era: After 17 years, 193 races, 23 victories and two championship titles, factory driver Mattias Ekström
ends his DTM career, which means that Audi’s most successful DTM campaigner to date is leaving this racing series.
In 2018, Ekström will concentrate on the factory-backed commitment of his team, EKS, in the World Rallycross Championship.
The new member of Audi’s DTM driver squad is Dutchman Robin Frijns.Last edited by BleAivano; 29th January 2018 at 13:14.

Get used to it, the change is coming so we may as well embrace it.
Why compare it to TT Zero when there is something like Formula E that manufacturers are keen to get involved in? Electric bikes also aren't as commercially available as electric cars. Privateer element is pretty much dead too, only the first season of World RX was truly accessible for privateers.You're so beige, you probably think this signature is about someone else.

Sorry but no-one is going to turn up for the non- experience of silent Electric RX.
It has to be hybrid engines with electric for torque and a small petrol for noise.

Formula E gets spectators. Not sure if you have been to a rallycross before, but even on a circuit that is incredible from a spectators point of view (Brands Hatch or Lydden) you can hardly hear the cars when they are away from you anyway.
Don’t get me wrong, I love the sound of ten of them leaving the start line, but it won’t kill it like you say.

Mattias Ekström will present the second driver today at 11.00 cet. Bakkerud also writes on his FB that
he has something to announce at 11.00 CET today. What a coincidence.Last edited by BleAivano; 31st January 2018 at 07:11.

Not a shock.. Mattias have always been a big fan of bakkerud.. Bakkerud is also a good driver and them together will make a great team.

At 19:15 Saturday, the FIA are announcing a new WRC event for 2025 at Sardegna. The event, I don't know - perhaps Paraguay.
