yes and since MINI hasn't managed to enter the WRC porperly, there isn't a chance AUDI will return... Originally Posted by stefanvv

How about this? Little too big and I don’t seriously believe MB would join WRC. Could someone please translate what’s said in the text? Couldn’t copy it to Google translator.

just remembered it's 9 years since Subaru launched (back then) their new Impreza (which wasn't very successful if you guys remember) , does anyone here think they'll comeback?

Probably not, they have programs in BTCC and the lower class of Japanese GT (or used to have, not sure if they still do). Originally Posted by Eli

Lowest point was probably when they had to put the top class drivers to run RX2e cars for the final races of the season, after the whole fire on the Lancias drama.
