i think gronholm will struggle to surpass 35 points, but more likely ford will overtakes kronos in the WCC.

mcrae will bin the car at least twice as he wont give a monkies since he don't have to impress to get a drive next year

Colin McRae is suggested as his replacement which would definetly be worth watching.
Damn, this is worst than I thought. I can live with the fact he won't race again in 2006, with a fatalist point of view, but it's a shame if it compromise his early 2007 season :evil:

I have full confidence in Mc Rae. He is clearly one of the greatest ever in rally, but for sure it won't be easy, mostly because he don't know the car. A bit like Carlos Sainz when he took over Delecour's seat at Peugeot.
