I think that most of us supported his campaign for his passion and to give him a boost for his future. As a European champion he had much better position for dealing with sponsors and teams for his own future. Sadly if that was not enough to help him than there is probably nothing else what could. Those who has the money and will to help someone fresh and young obviously won't support a man who already made it to the champion's crown. Being a champion also puts you in a position in which you need to take care of yourself.

Ingram is working so hard to get budget but is constantly let-down by sponsors who promise and then dont deliver. Just last week he was on the verge of annoucing a sponsor to do Monte Carlo when they pulled out.
Sadly its super-hard trying to get rally sponsorship from the UK as the profile of the sport is so low. And Motorsport UK have done nothing compared to what other countries do for their driver's.
Apart from Greensmith and Yates who have big family money behind them, no other Brits have made it to WRC level for years. Ingram should've been our next hope but isnt getting the chance.

Just like what happened to Emil B a couple of years ago then.
We just have to accept that fortune no matter talent, is a big factor. Let´s think of all brilliant drivers never made it to the top during all times...
Maybe a list on Bar topic?"Reis vas pät pat kaar vas kut"
Tommi Mäkinen, back in the years...
