They have to be announced. I guess one of them will be Andy Priaulx

They are just Cyan in disguise. The logos on the car are the paint code for Cyan blue.

Peugeot's CEO has clarified the brand's shock decision to withdraw from the World Rallycross Championship is not based on its recent results.

The manufacturer announced on Thursday it will quit World RX after the next month's season finale in South Africa.

...

Imparato also confirmed nine-time World Rally champion Sebastien Loeb, the only driver other than Johan Kristoffersson to have won a World RX round so far this season, will remain a PSA driver - having raced for Peugeot in World RX since 2016.

...

Any chance Loeb & SLR running Peugeots in WTCR?

It's always nice to see Yvan racing. I like this mix between young emerging and old stars that actually have again something to show

I feel that Muller could get a contract from one of the factory teams. Maybe he could join Bjork at Cyan...

Hyundai was keen to take on Andy Priaulx. Seems the former World Champion is no longer a hot asset.

this one seems already a very interesting line up. I just hope Morbidelli and Giovanardi will be able to find a seat and a decent car next year.

Wow a big shuffle but that's interesting. Catsburg back in WTCR? Now he has a big involvement in WEC with BMW, it seems strange this step back to touring although it's known that the german marque has a lot of capable drivers and I would be really happy to see him back in a competitive car in the World Touring Car series.

Girolami I think he has some contact with Honda. I also hope more involvement by Peugeot and Seat. I read that Oriola struggled with budget this year. Alfa Romeo surely will not invenst anything in the Giulietta unfortunately...

Now they just need to sort out BoP and race on tracks that do the drivers justice.

Opel will enter in a championship after 2020. They have to stabilize their financial balance first.

However nothing prevent that they could support a team in WTCR. Let's hope. The car won Adac TCR this year so it's not bad

Factory teams/cars are not allowed in TCR.

If I remember well Romeo Ferraris was not allowed to enter their Alfa in WTCR.

Cyan Racing is developing the Lynk & Co TCR car.

Cyan Racing will enter three cars in WTCR next season.

Why are they allowed?
