[WRC] News & Rumours 2019

[AnttiL]

I applaud Camilli for carving out a career as a, mainly, test driver so far, very clever. Of course, he wants to be competing, but after 2016 his career could have been over. Having the conversations and agreeing to test the Polo R5, new Fiesta R5 and now the C3 WRC means he has a depth of knowledge across many different cars and teams, which as each test passes, becomes more valuable to each team who is looking for help.

Also did a good portion of the Ford Fiesta WRC 2017 development in 2016.

I have seen LIVE 17 different drivers with WRC17-19 this year.
Breen and Virtanen will make it to 19.
Please 1 one more new name with WRC17-19 to @autoglymrally or @RallyFinland
That I can reach my Goal which is to see 20 different drivers competing with WRC17-19 LIVE during 2019

You will get the numbers full at Rally Finland.

So Østberg for third Citroen?

There are other options too.

Not sure if Katsuta has been announced? Hanninen is also an option there, cause he could likely take points off Neuville. Basically anyone could appear in a Fiesta.

Katsuta is planned to do the event in the new Fiesta R5. Hänninen said he won't do more events for now. Also, three Toyotas have been already entered for the event.

Also notice Jarno's previous tweet which hints towards Citroen

Really don't important information right now, except that Safari is 99% on calendar next year. But we all knew that already.
