And Mäkinen is now interested in Sordo

Sordo would make perfect sense as a part time driver, for example sharing car with Rovanpera (or just being nominate for points instead of him on some rounds)

However, Mäkinen did say he doesn't do part time drivers. Probably changed his mind.

As a full time driver there are those rallies where Sordo just never did perform(SWE, FIN, GB prbly Chile looking at the stages/surface) and I cant see that's going to change.

Or maybe this is just tactics to make it more costly for Hyundai to keep him, just like Hyundai is doing with "interest" in Tänak.

I think it's not Tommi, but Ott, who wants Sordo as a teammate next year..

Pontus Tidemand might do Rally Catalunya and Wales Rally GB this year according to a local Swedish newspaper. I'm guessing in a WRC Fiesta.

Sordo is still a sought-after driver despite being around for years. He is as reliable as most 2nd- tier driver's; plus massively popular in Spanish-speaking countries and so a great brand ambassador.

Hyundai would be foolish to let him go.

Looking like a chance of four Fiestas in GB then, as surely Gus will be in one too.

A rumor that Rally Finland could have a super special on a new motor track which is in the making and should be ready soon. It's located near Kouvola, 200 km from Jyväskylä.

I don't know what to say.

M-Sport can easily run four. Just wondering where does this all leave Paddon?

No difference as long as the pay... They have ran 4 cars even in AUS.
