Turns out the WRC is not the only motorsport losing Citroen in 2020...

What a massive shame. So many potential ramifications.

The main thing is Lappi was smiling again.

Throws the remaining seats up in the air if true. Breen, Ostberg, Evans, Loeb, Camilli, Tidemand – I thought Silly Season was mostly wrapped up, it's not.

Ostberg was the slowest WRC car until he crashed, on the Sunday, so no speed and no points. Surely, that's a fail?

Breen was indeed disappointing too, apart from a brief glimmer of hope in the...

It's open to interpretation.

“The budget for this year is closed,” he said, “we have to live with that and do as well as we can."

That doesn't sound promising to me.

The deal was struck that very morning at the show.

A bit last minute...!

Smacks of cost-cutting. I hope not. More €€ needed for R&D inc. testing. However, it could be money saved from running cars is being used to fund a brighter future. Hard to tell.

So now they have feedback from Breen, Meeke, Mikkelsen, Lefebvre and Loeb, and they all sound very similar. On dry tarmac it's a WTCC car, outside of that window it's a tricky sod. It's a shame it...

My thoughts exactly.

Very interesting, thank you for posting.

Good point. None of the teams really knew where they sat pace-wise pre-season.

Didn't Xavier Mestelan Pinon, the man who was the lead on the previous WRC and WTCC efforts, go and work in Formula E instead?

Get a grip.

Or become a journalist yourself.

A new rear differential rail and a modified torque split between the front and rear. Mikkelsen has the best chance yet of a Citroen result. Makes it a little odd that Meeke wasn't able to test the...
