Chris Atkinson's former co-driver, Stephane Prevot, will reportedly replace Australian Dale Moscatt as the co-driver for Evgeny Novikov for the remainder of the season.
The young Russian has crashed out of the last two rounds of the World Rally Championship, in Poland and Finland.
According to reports on the internet, Prevot will join the young Russian for the Barum Rally in a private Skoda S2000 - an event the former Australian Championship winning co-driver was meant to be competing in.
Novikov isn't entered for Repco Rally Australia next month, but the decision is a huge blow for Moscatt.
