    Funnily I saw some video on YouTube the other day with him driving it around L.A. And he said it had to go back to 2c as they own it. So I presume he just rented it for the year.

    Latest rumour I've heard is that Solberg may be looking at occasional R1 drives with a standalone Yaris R1 with Monster money. Apparantley the posse where at Toyota for talks last week...

    Sadly people have already adopted widely the new classes as R1, R2, etc and I’ve grown tired of fighting the windmills

    He could be a good candidate to test and race the Yaris Rally2, combined with some Rally1 driving when the car is "free".
    Can monster pay that much ? (Presume the running of a Rally1 is quite expensive)

    But, the same for M-sport..

    But Rally2 Yaris won't be ready for any competition next year.

    Either way I would say they are still exploring their options.

    Most of us knew what he meant; too many pedants on here wanting to correct everybody......

    Just hoping we see more Rally 1 cars from the teams other than M Sport to make it more interesting for everyone and that will hopefully allow younger drivers/new names to get noticed rather than waiting for the current crop of drivers to move on. Winning WRC2/ERC etc doesnt mean a shoe in to a top level drive it would appear..
