    The racing was as exciting and controvertial as ever, but unless Ekstrom can continue that man JK looks in a class of his own.

    BTW how the hell did they pick Natalie Barratt for the Projekt-E car ?

    Even you with money can go to e-car...
    They have 20 cars maximum just like all other classes.

    As that particular car is owned by a company with a rally background I wondered if there was some historical connection between them and Barratt, as I thought she was a surprising choice as well.

    No doubt that Natalie has driven a range of cars, but you think that someone with more recent rallycross experience would be preferable for developing a new car.

    Natalie was for many WRC rallies run by OMV rally Team / Manfred Stohl Rally Team.

    You do realise that STARD - the company behind this concept - is Manfred Stohl's company?

    There are not so many complications in this decision....

    There had to be a reason. They could've explained it on the TV coverage as they must've known fans would be puzzled.
