Sebastien Loeb To Join Ford In Wrc2006 ?
#3
OUCH I heard a while back that Peugot was leaving at the end of the year but Citroen leaving as well is a blow to the WRC. There are other company's that are thinking of a possible entry into the WRC in the near future, Toyota is one company that has now freed itself of the burden of running open wheeled racing in NA and will be looking towards either the WRC or dumping more money into there F1 program, Suzuki has been doing extremely well in the lower classes of the WRC now for several years and soon it will get bored of winning in those classes and will be looking for a new challenge, Hyundai will be looking to return to the WRC Junior classes in 2007 or 2008, after the last disastrous outing in the full WRC in 2002 that left Alister McRae without a ride for almost a full season with a new full factory effort Hyundai will probably will probably do what Suzuki did and test there techonology in the Junior classes before promoting itself to the full WRC.
