Indeed (finally) but they will need to collaborate between the current drivers and Master Loeb to get the best out of that C3 WRC.

The car seemed to go quite well on asphalt, would it not be more useful to do a gravel test?
It's a bit strange they've felt the need to create this 'PSA Motorsport' concept to rationalise it. I know Loeb had no Citroen deal at all after they unceremoniously dumped him as they began to wind down their WTCC programme. Reports were he was pretty pissed at Citroen at the time.
Anyway my point is it seems a lot for just a WRC test. Have to wonder whether they will be an outing or two, especially as Citroen have publicly said this year is a write off ahead of 2018. Would be amazing but I doubt it.
the PSA Motorsport thing is nothing new, they announced this a couple of years ago. The point was to have a more cost efficient structure and run all motorsport programs from the same structure and facilities.
About bloody time Loeb had a go at the dismal car. Hopefully he can get some competitive entries too.
We know he can develop a car at least! We'll see what he can do :)
Best news in a while!
The C3 WRC touring car is great on tarmac.. so why is Loeb doing a tarmac test.

An interesting piece about Loeb's test.
