Colin categorically stated that it wasn't about money. So I'm guessing it was about money...
It's a shame we won't see Col, but it's a great opportunity for another up and coming Flying Finn... and new responsibility for Petter as team leader! |

Well, let's see, how Hirvonen drives without a tight leash, like on his drive on M-Sport Ford, where the most important thing was to finnish, not to drive as fast as you can...

Very similar to what they did with Solberg and Martin a while ago don't you think. And also similar to what Wilson has done at Ford with Duval, Latvala and ahem Hirvonen!
Funny how both 2004 Subaru drivers were both groomed and given their first chance by Malcolm Wilson |

Horvonen's drive is only for a year though isn't it? Unless Subaru can run 3 cars in 2005, I'm guessing that Burns will be running extensive testing sessions once he's fully recovered (n about 6 months time).

The contract of Hirvonen is 1+1+1+2 years. I don't know, why they did this long contract.

I just watched Rally Sweden on Speed. At the end of the program , Nicky Grist also mentioned a rumour that Loix will sacked after Mexico, and McRae will take his place...
Interesting.. |
