Earlier this week Gus Greensmith confirmed his plans for the 2024 WRC season.
Sticking With Skoda
Gus Greensmith will once again drive for Skoda this upcoming season. Greensmith finished second in the WRC2 championship last season. Greensmith was demoted to WRC2 at the end of the 2022 season. After a poor performance with M-Sport forced the team to drop the British star. The 27-year-old will once again be joined by Oliver Solberg this season. Greensmith is expected to make his season debut at Rally Sweden. As he is not contesting Rallye Monte-Carlo later this month. Last season Greensmith debuted at Rally Mexico. An event in which Greensmith topped the class.
What To Expect From Greensmith
Gus Greensmith is arguably the favorite to win the 2024 WRC2 championship. As he finished second in the championship last season, and Andreas Mikkelsen, who won the championship is no longer contesting the championship. Greensmith will have to fend off the likes of Oliver Solberg, Yohan Rossel and Sami Pajari who are also championship favorites. Greensmith won’t have an easy time achieving his goal of becoming WRC2 champion. Nevertheless, he will give it his all. Just like every other driver. Greensmith won two out of the seven events he contested last season. He will likely win the same amount or more this season.
What Events Will Greensmith Do?
Gus Greensmith has yet to reveal his full schedule for the upcoming season. However, he is expected to make his season debut at Rally Sweden next month. From there he will likely do Rally Vodafone De Portugal. After that, nothing is really expected. Greensmith will likely contest most of the European rounds and one of the non-European rounds. That lone round will likely be Rally Chile BioBio. The same round he chose to do outside of Europe last season.
