As for the drivers overalls, they're virtually the same, save for a small patch, from what I can see. Can't be a huge financial deal then.

    Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

    Don't forget the color of Citroen and Total are red. They pay a lot of money too.

    Ugly livery, just like the F1 pair. Messy and awkward.

    Great! The plain red was becoming boring.

    I agree, it's just not that big of an impact on the eye. Far too much red, I know Citroen's colour is red and they want it red but I think in this case they would gain more attention with a fully Red Bull coloured car as they are already so heavily associated with their colour, red. That way I think they would gather more interest from a 'non-rallying' crowd.

    I remember when Telefonica joined Citroen as a sponsor back in 2001 or 2002, and it was the same then - it looked like an add-on, not integrated in the design as it should be.

    As good a team Citroen are, theit marketing isn't great is it? As pointed out, the Telefonica livery wasn't great, the Red Bull could be better, and certainly over here in UK they don't make the most of their success. Can't remember seeing any adverts for all the success.
