[WRC] News & Rumours 2019

Really hope to see WRC2 Pro take off, would be great to have a second true pro level now ERC has effectively lost it and a great marketplace for teams to advertise their R5 cars for sale.

I also like the part about competitors from the same country not needing to pay to enter WRC2. Not sure if that's new, but I like the rule.

Hopefully he's going to go have some fun bashing Skodas in an R5.

I think Mads would be a nice adition to WRC2 Pro but i don't think he can beat Rovanpera on gravel or Kopecky on tarmac with an R5 car.

Nope (any Portuguese can easily read spanish). I asked because AutoSprint was quoted.

Oh that's why! Yes, since you are portuguese it sounded weird to me. I just didn't get the AutoSprint reference instead.

According to Belgian "Speed Magazine", they have a source that confirmed them the deal between Loeb and Hyundai is done.

Normally it's quite a reliable source...

If i understand Google translate right, it`s the same philosophing that Clark did, not actually saying it is done?

Not exactly. They say they got the news it is signed.

Then they ask themselves if that could be possible and explain the events that might cause this decision.

If loeb goes to Hyundai, which i won't believe until its official, that would mean that citroen has completely screwed up something.

Mads driving for who ? Skoda team is already settled.

With Hyundai big in TCR it could also give Loeb some options to remain in circuit racing. He could do Nurburgring 24 even. Quite an interesting prospect. Not sure I believe it but they seem far more committed to motorsport than PSA.

My guess is Citroen
