I think Audi/Volkswagen
Vauxhall or Nissan as all of these makes have expressed interests to branch out into other areas of motorssport. |

Audi/VW are already there with Skoda, and were also involved with SEAT.

And Vauxhall isn't a world-wide brand, which makes me think GM may scrap the Vauxhall name and rename them Opel. Then Opel could enter WRC.

Audi, no because of marketing image.
Opel / Vauxhall, no only DTM intrest them at the moment. Nissan, no they have cancelled their rally program twice and company is fighting with economical problems, VW, mayby.....they were in british CS...Seat is out and Skoda cannot have a sussex. |

Yes, something like 6R4 should be nice to see in WRC rallying.
And I miss Italians too, Lancia back where it belongs, please! |

Fiat is missing,not to say Lancia.Because of the Ferrari F1 activities I do not think that they are going to develop a WRC car although they have prepared a Fiat Punto.
