Although no official announcement has been made, sources close to the Cusco World Rally Team are saying the team will be back to contest the APRC in 2010, with five events planned.
The Gunma-based team contested the Asia Cup in 2009, with Japanese drivers Hiroshi Yanagisawa and Yuya Sumiyama piloting a pair of brand-new EVO X Lancers. With their 2009 development year behind them, it is believed they have ruled out contesting Rally New Caledonia, leaving Rally Whangarei as a likely extra event for 2010.
