Not saying it wasn't true but that was likely with the old Motorsport department which was completely disbanded in 2006 and hence it's not related to any stories from 2008 an onwards.

Drivers and their managers often negotiate with teams but it doesn’t always lead in a deal Originally Posted by masa90

Chris Ingram has also expressed his disappointment with Škoda's attitude towards him after he won the 2019 ERC in a Fabia.

Interestingly Lappi mentioned that Skoda wants their drivers always to finish the rallies without mistakes, and Ingram has proved he can do this successfully. But maybe Ingram didn't realize that Skoda ended all their direct factory support at the end of 2019. Originally Posted by Fast Eddie WRC

Do you suggest that they should have picked Ingram instead of Solberg to support in 2020? Originally Posted by Fast Eddie WRC

This is Ingrams scorechart from 2019, not a single rallywin.
Often works teams look only for speed potential, that you can smash the opposition on a sigle stage, or a full rally that suites you.
The rest is teachable, but natural speed is not.
Brutal, but mostly true!

That's the problem with all of this. It's all "he said that she said that somebody in the next street heard that ......" We're relying on sports journo's with no technical background relaying...
