Tanak: “I definitely tried very hard from my side to drive them forward,”

“Beginning of the year was still quite hopeful. Then somehow we lost the track and there was not much happening. But yeah, I really hope that they get back on the track and back where they belong.

“I hope he [Malcolm Wilson] finds somebody a bit more consistent than I’ve been!” Tänak added. “Because I’ve been quite a tough product in the beginning I guess.

“But I believe they’ll hopefully have some other guys coming.”

I don't understand the ,,I hope he [Malcolm Wilson] finds somebody a bit more consistent than I’ve been!” part from Tanak..

I think he is talking in general that they are heading back down the young driver route again and that he, Tanak was a bit inconsistent for a number of years before he came good and he hopes they find a young guy that is more consistent.That’s how I read it anyway

That way it makes sense yes.

It seems as if Skoda may end up with a better driver lineup than this..

Nothing against Formaux-Munster but they would have made good 2nd and 3rd drivers with someone a bit more experienced in the No1. car, even someone cheap like Suninen or Mikkelsen.

But at least M-Sport stay in the game..

Lindholm WRC2 plus selected 3rd car Rally1 outings?

Is it the worst Ford line-up ever?

Santa Serderidis


Hopefully they both do good season.

Would be a good deal for Lindholm; the Rally2 car has improved a lot last year and it would give him some Rally1 experience against affordable drivers in the same car.
Most logical may be the fast gravel period in Rally1 (Poland-Latvia-Finland) and a Sweden-Croatia-Portugal-Sardinia-Greece-Chile-Europa calendar in Rally2. Would be also a better stuff than what Huttunen did some years ago (only one outing is not very relevant in my opinion).

Fourmaux-Munster… let’s see but not really convinced about Munster potential except maybe for the 4 gravel events.
They will have to rely on Fourmaux’ speed and the lack of drivers in other teams to do some podiums.
