    Time to start a new thread for 2026...

    Lancia's comeback should be the big news to discuss.

    Jurgenson not being promoted to Rally1 yet by M-Sport, so more WRC2 drives next year (if he finds sponsors)...

    For Jürgenson, it would be too soon in my opinion. He drove Rally3 last year, and this year he’s starting to show good results with Rally2, but he still needs one or two proper seasons with that car. I think the 2027 regulations will come at a very suitable time for him.

    It is nonsense for Romet to go to Rally1 now as this cars has only one season future and then there will becompletely different cars...

    I think everyone agrees... I don't know why it was even a suggestion about Jurgenson.

    If anyone was to be promoted from M-Sport it would be Jon Armstrong. He has had a very strong end to 2025 with two ERC wins and a 2nd place (to Kopecký) in Barum. Plus he has sponsors & backing from Motorsport Ireland.

    Or maybe he could have an event funded by the Promoter like Sesks did. I'm sure he'd love to try the Rally1 Puma before it becomes obsolete.

    Now that solberg is with toyota, M-sport should go for gryazin. He has a big enough budget and more talent than their current drivers.
    Or maybe rossel.

    M-Sport is a business, and in the current situation in the World, where in many sports disciplines competitors from a certain country are not allowed to compete, using Grazin is not a very good marketing tool. Whatever flag he legally carries at the moment does not matter too much.
