    He has driven the best, so he could guide.
    Is this Red Bull and Monster Energy conflict only reason why can't this happen?

    Oliver Solberg was brilliant all weekend. That goes without saying.

    What was equally pleasant to hear were the words of Kalle Rovanpera whenever he was asked about Oliver's performance. Not once did he attempt to disparage or downplay what was truly great drive. He analysed Solberg's merits with maturity and even offered snippets that few would have. That was class. He scored big in my mind.

    Why would Oliver solberg, the man who has just won Rally Estonia, want to drive a sh1tbox of an m-sport car? He's quicker than their Rally 1 drivers in a Rally 2 car.

    Agree, makes no sense to go for a Rally1 drive in M-Sport now.

    The issue, as always, is money. All the M-Sport drivers need to bring some support. And the Solbergs (like Mikkelsen) dont believe they should pay to drive.

    The clash with Monster Energy wouldn't be an issue if they hired a Puma and ran it themselves.
