Below is the official press release by the FIA.The FIA is pleased to confirm that four manufacturers have registered to supply tyres to the 2014 FIA World Rally Championship.
DMACK, Hankook and Michelin continue to support the Championship and will be joined by Pirelli for next season.

between four manufacturers next year, three of whom are already
supporting our Championships. Having Pirelli return to the series is

They were out of WRC by the end of season 2010, and it is indeed a good omen to the sport. Hope more competition fields up in every area of the sport.
