I don’t think he said anything out of the ordinary. Wasn’t much fanfare if it was Kopecky and/or Skoda Motorsport’s last event.
Press release said this: At the final WRC round in Australia, only a ŠKODA crew can win the WRC 2 championship for private teams. Our customers around the world are rallying successfully with the 311 cars we sold. We have a big responsibility towards our customers and will now fully concentrate on preparing next season properly.”

interview with Kopecky on auto.cz.. he says:
- He’s not retiring
- Jan Hlousek was on loan from Mares for two events only
- Has no contract for next year ‘We’ll see what happens to Skoda Motorsport factory team, there is a lot of confusion compared to previous years”

I guess that he will start only as a privateer next year.

Perfect timing for Mr. Wilson to sign Kopecky? He’d be quite useful fixing the Mk2 Fiesta.
Btw, it was nice to see Ostberg pushing harder and moaning less, showing that he and the C3 can be fast anywhere; congrats to him, Eriksen and DG Racing. Congrats also to Camilli, pretty competent on his first C3 outing. Hopefully, a good boost for the car sales.Rally addict since 1982
