    Loubet, Greensmith and Katsuta are not fast enough either

    I'm pretty sure that Mads isn't even thinking about Rally1drive, it's clearly impossible(without payin) and for Lindholm it is too early for that.

    to be fair,very few drivers could compete Nasser at these special rallies.

    Nasser is an expert at short cuts too, remember Sainz's and Nasser's little twitter argument last year

    It's like saying that Mikkelsen, Neuville, Meeke or Breen never deserved WRC drive as they never beat Kopecký in Barum, lol

    Meeke was behind Nasser until his retirement in the Qatar-rally last year. So Meeke was slower than Nasser, didn't beat Kopecky. He'd never win a WRC rally with that lack of pace... ehh.

    Chris Ingram Rally

    Full focus on the World Rally Championship. All thanks to my partners and crowdfunding army for supporting me.

    Currently hatching a plan with my team @toksportwrt to step up into the latest car for our next WRC round.

    The new car has dominated so far. I can’t wait to get my hands on one and show my full potential. Stay tuned...

    Miko Marczyk announced his programme for this year. He will continue to compete in WRC2, this time with the new Skoda Fabia RS Rally2.
    Confirmed rallies are Portugal, Sardegna, Estonia and Finland. The rest will depend on the situation.

    New livery:

    Wonder when the FIA/WRC promoter will try and clamp down on WRC 2 testing. Hardly seems to be a week goes by without the likes of Solberg posting a testing video.

    This has been going on for ages though.
    I remember as far as 2016 Skoda was getting comments that they had more test days than multiple WRC teams. Probably before as well.

    Recently in 2021 both Skoda and Citroen were also putting tons of money into testing. Hyundai (with Solberg) tried too, but then pushed him to Rally1 instead and seemingly de-prioritized Rally2.
    Last year there was seemingly a bit less testing but for Skoda it was about testing of the new car instead.
