    Subaru pulls out from WRC

    Another racing team to drop out becayse of the global recession.
    Atkinson and Sohlberg both were fast and important drivers for the series, also now Gr?nholm's comeback is in danger.

    I just want to make a thread about this after reading on local magazine. It's very sad news. Even a big team like Subaru pulls out from WRC. I think racing sports is won't entertaining like before since global recession

    Even though I hardly watched WRC, it was my favourite team

    This could be a positive thing for F1 though.

    This was David Richard's Prodrive flagship team. Well he's now in the market for a new flagship team. Hey look...the remnants of the Honda F1 team are for sale, and cheap too.

    I wonder what might happen.
