Wilks was set for a podium finish until he hit a stump and rolled the car mid-way through day two, but his career could be just about to get a whole lot busier.

Reports in the UK suggest that Wilks is close to announcing that he’ll drive a third works Subaru on 10 rounds of next year’s World Rally Championshp.

Wilks has been trying to raise £2 million pounds for the seat and is said to have reached about half of the amount so far.
