    Stobart vs Munchi's

    According to Hennings Manager the reasoning is that Stobart would like to have 2 Stobart sponsored cars fronting the team where possible. (The Orange Expert Car does not blend in !)
    In rallies where Munchi's only have one car, Henning will drive for Munchi's. He will have the same people supporting him from M-Sport, so no big drama, and Henning is Happy !



    If I had been Munchi's CEO I would also be happy, since they will get more Manufacturer points this way.
    And Mr Wilson Sr probably wants all 3 Ford teams to Score points. All in all a good solution for all parties involved !!!

    What a shame, no North American drivers The number of local drivers is similar to previous years, but it's a shame there are so few foreign privateers.

    Costs I believe

    And there are already many drivers in S1600(JWRC) to my opinion


    Keep a cloth eye to team Sébastien Ogier/Julien Ingrassia
    Sébastien Loeb himself would have adviced Citroën to give a chance to this young and fully promising crew(if you followed them in the french 206 Cup you should understand my point of view) :

    Only two years experience in rallying(starting when they won the "Rallye-Jeunes" challenge by end 2005)and they collected many wins and the title in 2007 at the french Peugeot 206 Cup, simple as that

    Ogier won on tarmac as on gravel(he likes both type of rallies)
