For fu@$ sake let's hope Khalid is not driving. Unless of course he's paying for things... Oh wait nevermind..
Private operation is a private operation, has been and always will be, even with cars intended to be customer cars (R5). Everything was last minute for M-Sport also, Tänak in no. 2 team car didn`t get the latest- best parts (this year the same with Suninen and Evans), Ogier was obviously the priority. When there were talks about a private Yaris, Mäkinen immediately said that if that is the case, it`s going to be a 17 spec car...or Neuville getting his new aero for AUS17 and new engine mod for AUS18.
Like said, no reason for being offended and not choosing M-Sports official driver package.

With due respect, Budar sounds exactly like him. That’s why you should take his ‘fourth’ as a ‘third’…
Ostberg should see if the Mitsubishi people in Sweden (that did the Mitsi R5) want to put a project proposal to the Nismo or Mitsubishi people to run a semi official works WRC team out of Sweden (like the Solberg/ VW team, Olsbergs, Hansen have done in RX etc)

Norway has the electric car marketing angle for Nissan Leafs etc. Le cost cutter is no longer around.
I listened to the Budar interviews from All Live and Autosport podcast with headphones. It seems he says something like fird, a hybrid between third and fourth. It could be his French way of pronouncing English. But wouldn't it be weird to talk about fourth car before ever mentioning a third car?
in his head
