BBC SPORT | Motorsport | Rallying | Subaru pull out of world rallying

Such a shame, seems WRC is continuing to go the way of the BTCC

Along with Suzuki, I think that may be game over.

Still it frees Prodrive up for a collaboration with the arist formally known as Honda

Think the "RIP WRC" thread is coming true, then there were two. :(

No wonder Seb is looking for "other challenges" in motorsport, looks like he's seen the writing on the wall.

That would make sense. Prodrive were to be the 12th team in F1 this year until Williams got uppity about them having a customer car.

Let's hope that WRC's loss is F1's gain.

Just found out about Subaru and Suzuki leaving the WRC, what a shame :(

Wait until the dust settles. theres a chance Prodrive will run a team next year using the latest Subarus, They have a rolling deal with Subaru so severance terms are still to be agreed, part of that will be who keeps the cars. They will continue to support private Subaru teams & build new customer cars (£450,000 if you want one) so would make sense to have a team, especially as the cars are developed

There are also plenty of people who do the Irish rallying with WRC money as well but still a shame that they have pulled out :(
