the sube WRC team has 4 drivers under full contract
1, Richard Burns
2, Petter Solberg
3, Marko Martin
4, Arai (not sure about the full name Japanese guy)
They have been using the new spec car since Monte Carlo this year (January)
I got to race against that car here in the States once. It ran 2 events.

Most WRC teams hire specialist to run special events like Finland and etc.
to run along side their regular driver.
Mitsu has 3 cars entered
1, Tommi
2, Freddy
3, Toni Gardemaister from Finland, extremly fast at this event

sube has ran the new car all year.

BTW - Tommi is out of the rally of Finland on stage 1 when he hit a tree stump and went into a ditch damaging his suspension and losing one of his wheels.

the EVO 7 or EVO WRC you will see will only use the EVO 7 bodyshell
and the rest of the car (except rear suspension) will be parts from the
EVO 6

Rallylive reports that the new WRC Evo7 wil be used in rally Finland by some guy, dont know who that is. Maybe it is a GrpN car. It is a good way to test the car before Makinen uses it.

Tommi will be using the WRC Evo 7 in the event after Finland.
