Jan Kopecky heeft shakedown met Skoda Fabia met passieve diffs gedaan. Dit betekent dat het Red Bull Skoda team een MF1 team kan worden: 2006 spec wagen, punten voor manufacturer kampioenschap en ervaren piloten (die de afgelopen jaren ooit punten gescoord hebben) toegelaten.
Quote:
With former driver Armin Schwarz linked to a plan to run a Skoda team backed by soft drink firm Red Bull, however, the Czech marque has been adapting its cars to the 2006 rules.
Although a number of drivers have been linked to this team, former Citroen driver Francois Duval and promising 21-year-old Group N driver Andreas Aigner are hotly tipped to take the two seats. Both the Belgian and the Austrian have sponsorship from Red Bull. The effort is expected to be run by former VW factory driver Raimund Baumschlager's Baumschlager Rallye Racing outfit and co-ordinated by Schwarz.
Kopecky is also believed to be close to sealing a deal to run one or two cars from his workshops in the Czech Republic, driving one himself.
