    Generally, money and getting sponsors is an issue for them, also the insurance cost after their big crashes in the previous seasons is very high. They had to spend a lot of money recently, and outstretched themselves financially and how they prepare and operate during events. So this season, they want to be a bit more like "follow the flow" and try to regroup a bit.

    Also, Norbert Herczig is planning to return to the ERC this season with Llarena's Yaris Rally2. If this materializes remains to be seen.

    This is a shame but understandable. I hope he can come back to do more events in the future as he's a great character and very fast.

    Jos Verstappen to do ERC 2025 !

    “This year, I’ve got 19 or 20 events planned: every BRC rally, every ERC rally, the Rallye International du Valais, and a historic rally in Sweden. And we’re also doing the East African Safari Classic Rally with the Porsche. We have an insanely beautiful programme."

    Wow! Interesting news. Do you think he will be more successful in ERC than Kubica?

    It is not so difficult to be more successful in ERC than Robert. Ok, he has won Janner Rallye (together with Pech with most powerful car), but other starts in ERC were bad. He was concentrating mainly to WRC.

    I don't think that Verstappen will win even one rally (but I wish him good luck of course).
