Let me begin by thanking Motorsport Italia team for their hard work over the last weeks in ensuring Fabio Andolfi's participation! In Turkey the rally will be really hard for both the pre-rally hard work of our team and for the physical effort of drivers. I would like to officially welcome Emanuele Inglesi coming back with us after almost a year absence from WRC, and sending to Simone Scattolin a great big hug. He will follow from Italy the Rally Turkey because of the crash occured in Germany!”
