WRC: Second Half of 2006

I can tell you right now that Valentino Rossi will not be running a full season of Rally next year. At best, it will be another one-off showing in the (moto GP)off season. Moto GP testing of the new 800cc bikes is underway, and The Doctor will be in the lab until further notice.

The new Suzuki will be coming on board, Mitsu will be back, as well as Citroen. So there are a few open seats. I’m a big Gigi Gali fan, I want to see him smack up more co-drivers :tup: . If Suzuki was smart, they’d grab Crash McRae, and once the factory Citroen team figures out their #2 driver, the team Loeb was driving for last year will have 2 open driver seats. They are a pretty strong team, so we’ll see who they snap up.

I should probably finish watching Day 3 of New Zealand.
