Same with Greensmith and Patterson, let the new guy practice before going to Monte
I’ve heard the name John Rowan brought up

Could be a good idea for Breen also. A new co-driver may help to reduce his mistakes.

Wow that's quite some gymnastics guys. He says he agreed with Craig to give the next co driver an extra rally before Monte. And he says he will be in Japan to support him.

Also James Fulton is a possibility, he has been doing gravel notes for him and is an excellent co-driver at national level here.
I would be happy if he stayed with an Irish co-driver as not only would it keep it an all Irish crew but would be a great opportunity for a young navigator.
But at the same token I would understand if he went with an experienced WRC navi like Seb Marhsall, Dan Barritt etc.
Just on Paul he deserves huge credit, an amazing career and an excellent ambassador for the sport in Ireland. Always a gentleman also when we met him.
"Jesus Christ Kris!" That wont be forgotten for a long time

“Kris [Meeke] definitely wants to come back, I’m sure! Hayden [Paddon] could be an option as well. There are not a lot of options, but I guess between Mikkelsen, Sordo and Elfyn, they are the three best.”

Well I have been saying for at least a year that Solberg needs stable program without pressure, being nominated Hyundai driver is not that. Whether it's 4th car or full Rally2 season (without jumps to Rally1) doesn't imo matter that much.
What is really interesting here is that he even mentions Meeke and Paddon, but no word about Suninen.
EDiT: Most notably since Neuville has historically been at odds with Paddon. So what does he have against Suninen? I agree those 3 are better choice than Suninen, but Meeke and Paddon not so sure. Meeke lack reliability and Paddon isn't really on same level as in 2018 (yet?), but has Hyundai backing.Last edited by mknight; 5th October 2022 at 17:47.

Yes. It´s a surprise that Neuville mentions Paddon. Would be good for Solberg to drive 4th car. Sordo and Suninen will share 3rd car.

I would like to see Meeke back, I know he isn’t the one most likely, but I did love the jeopardy of it!

Nope, Article 12.1.3 has this covered, must use ballast or dummy unit.
