    Oliver will compete in one or two rounds of the European Rallycross championship too with a i20 built by Hedstroms Motorsport. (Not the WORLD rallycross with electric cars.)

    After his dismissal from Hyundai, what is the best and most likely way for Oliver for 2023?

    - Privat Rally2
    - Factory Rally2
    - Factory Rally2 + a Few Rally 1
    - Another combo

    I don't know how their ties are with Skoda, but IF Mikkelsen to Hyundai, then Solberg to his seat?
    New Fabia also coming.. + could be a heck of a livery with Skoda and Monster both green

    He should go to rally2 and prove he can win there first.

    WRC2 with Skoda (both with or without Mikkelsen) or Puma at MSport, but that wouldn't lower pressure much.

    He reminds me of Latvala. Good driver and fantastic on his day, but not really a ‘great’ and makes far too many mistakes under pressure. No Loeb or Ogier, or dare I say it, Rovanperä?

    The standards needed are exceedingly high these days.

    With so few top seats available, you have to take your chance when it presents itself, and he’s not done it sadly.

    I don’t think a move to M-Sport is the answer, unless its a full WRC2 season. Maybe some extra testing of a Puma would be an advantage for both him and M-Sport so could form part of a deal. Or some National events in a Puma?
    If the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off!
