Actually, they have been working on moving the gearbox paddle from Fiesta to Clio for a few months. So it's more that they wanted it there, not that they had to. They had to get an approval from Italian Motorsport Federation (I don't know the name) to participate though.

Hi
So it would seem the 2017 VW and C3 jump with the front lifting up, is this to get the back on the ground as fast as possible for more traction? or fale safe so it does not land front first? Just the jumps we are seeing? or some else?
Cheers
Andrew
Good question! Seb Marshall hinted/suggested on a recent Absolute Rally podcast interview that it's the aero set-up that is causing this. Notice how the Toyota doesn't seem to do that too much and supposedly neither does the Hyundai. Wether or not this is deliberate is a bit unknown.
