SKODA = VW/AUDI, thus an Audi team would probably be too expensive.

Default Ah. Didn't know that about Skoda.
There's talk Ford will drop out. Guess we'll never see and AWD Focus in the US.

They spend too much money on Le Mans. They need to jump to the big time and do F1.

I think they could sell it if they tried. That would be a pretty sweet little car.

Default They came, they dominated, they left while on top.
1980s...the glory days of rallying. Killer B's were a blast to watch.

VW/Audi is not pleased with spectator safety in WRC.
