From my info when we first emerged on the calendar in 2021 (Covid year) we’ve signed 1 year deal, after that there was a new 3 year extension (2+1) for 2022,2023 and 2024.
And from my intel a new 3 year contract for 2025,2026 and 2027 was signed this morning.
Still waiting for official statement from Rally Croatia organizers.

Fourmaux on the PS win – “One of the best stages of my life”
https://rallyjournal.com/wrc-sensati...es-of-my-life/
Also on his mistake:
“It was a really small mistake for us with big consequences. Some other drivers made a lot of mistakes and it was okay for them, but for us it’s been different.”
Fourmaux did not fully blame himself for the error.
“The concrete pole came a bit earlier than I expected. The issue in Croatia is that they don’t place the concrete poles during the recce. You can only trust your gravel crew, but you can’t say exactly where it is. Sometimes you get surprises,” Fourmaux explained.

Hmmm not sure that’s an excuse really. They paint the spot where it’ll be and that’s where it appears on the day…

You are right! This can be seen in this video: https://youtu.be/Wq-kCgR-ln8?si=C7KgWOEQIadGn2Lk&t=48 there is a yellow mark and this pole is totally off the tarmac.

Fourmaux has nobody to blame but himself. It was nothing but a stupid driver error.

You see this on the onboard, suddenly turns in more when he hits the dip, easy thing to do as you need to keep close to it to not jump off the road.

TBH I dont get why some places have anti-cut devices when other identical kind of places allow huge cutting and the throwing of dirt all over the road.

At 19:15 Saturday, the FIA are announcing a new WRC event for 2025 at Sardegna. The event, I don't know - perhaps Paraguay.
