...and ERC24 have answered my question:

http://erc24.com/archives/17142

Mats Öhman will drive Timmy's 2013 DS3's, Emil Öhman will be in Timur's 2013 DS3.

Not quite sure why you would pay to drive a car like that when Mats already has a perfectly good car anyway, but nevermind

These guys seem to be made of money so fair play to em

paul1982 · 20 Mar 2014, 19:16 (Ref:3382399)

@tbtstt

It is for 99% sure that Andy Scott will drive the 2nd Albatec peugeot 208..... (beside Villeneuve)
So you can fill in those question mark

Maybe it's easier to buy a drive in a team that is already travelling round the series, and at the top, rather than the logistics of getting your own car and team to the rounds they are doing.

Grosset-Janin will do ERX.

I hadn't seen that in print anywhere, so I hadn't added it! Scott will do the World Championship I assume?

tbtstt · 26 Mar 2014, 10:16 (Ref:3384537)

Spotted a picture uploaded on the LD Motorsports Facebook:

Three DS3's present at their test this week. I wonder if all three are LDM cars and, if so, are they still planning to run three cars in the World Rallycross this year?

CS1 · 26 Mar 2014, 12:28 (Ref:3384588)

Testing at Alencon

dex92 · 26 Mar 2014, 14:12 (Ref:3384634)

Am assuming that Eric Faren is the second LD drive judging by this picture. Don't think anyone else has posted, if so appoligies in advance

Derek Tohill and Krzysztof Skorupski confirmed for LD Motorsport World RX Team:

http://www.rallycrossworld.com/2014/...llycross-team/

Interesting couple of lines towards the end of the article:

"The team will run alongside the Monster Energy World RX Team this season, for which team owner Liam Doran will drive, alongside a yet to be confirmed team-mate."

So there will be four LDM cars on the grid?

I think a few of us called Tolhill at LD months ago.

**FIRE** · 27 Mar 2014, 20:08 (Ref:3385285)

Not an easy task to run 3 cars.

Dubourg has taken over Jeanney's C4 to race in French Championship.

It seems that LDM is running 4 cars this year...
And what about OMSE, if 3 cars to run is "not an easy task"...?

I rate them higher.

Doran has 2 teams, and 3 drivers, if he wants to win the team titel, he needs another driver in his Monster team.

Who?

rx-guru · 29 Mar 2014, 11:43 (Ref:3386026)

I'm pretty certain that a fourth driver will be revealed soon.
But do not forget that the second driver of a team doesn't need to do all 12 WRX rounds, while the second car is obligatory for the team title.

mivec · 29 Mar 2014, 13:09 (Ref:3386044)

The car needs to do all rounds to get the maximum points, as all points from both cars count to get the team CC.

Two cars of a team MUST do all rounds:

Quote of FIA rules: "A team entry consists of two cars and Drivers. The cars must
be of the same make and model, but may be different in livery.
The team must be the Competitor and it will be responsible for
selecting the two Drivers for cars in its entry.
The team shall be responsible to the FIA to ensure that two cars
always take to the grid for each Competition of the Championship."

paul1982 · 29 Mar 2014, 18:49 (Ref:3386165)

So it is pretty sure that Albatec will put in another driver instead of Villeneuve at Lydden??
I guess Albatec is a team that will try to score constructers points?

Both Scots David Coulthard and Allan McNish are from the Dumfries area where Englishman Andy Scott lives...

That is an incredibly well timed post Guru.

I was just about to post asking if anyone has read the latest issue of Top Gear. There is a feature on the S1 quattro and it concludes with a few lines on rallycross and the drivers who are doing it this year: included in the names it mentions is David Coulthard.

Was going to ask to see if anyone had heard anything along those lines: you beat me to it!

paul1982 · 30 Mar 2014, 17:01 (Ref:3386693)

So still big news to come!

Expact also soon something from Timerzyanov and Jeanney.
Also 2nd car for Peugeot/Hansen (jeanney? ?)
2nd driver for monster energy team besides liam.
Maybe Henning Solberg?
2nd car from Hedstrom
And 2 Eklund Saabs??

With the confirmed linup already Lydden can expact more then 35 supercars this year

would be awesome!

Some old names back in S1600 and TC gives plenty of racing this year!
Portugal would be less because it is far away and don't count for ERX SC.
