When is the next batch of C3 R5 going out to customers?
The more cars, the more feedback they get!

By the way Hrabánek officially confirmed that some major improvements of Fabia R5 are coming together with the facelifted body. He also said that based on the agreement with FIA no major changes in R5 rules are about to come and they want to develop and produce R5 cars for at least several more years.

Actually the car was at the pace in Portugal and Italy but with an inconsistent driver like Lefebvre or a slow one like Tempestini it’s hard to succeed. Besides, Citroen and PHSport (that runs the cars) have been unable to solve some minor tech issues, helping to raise doubts over the car reliability. All together, not the ideal start for the C3.

I have read that Mads Østberg + one more norwegian would like to buy one each.
I hope Citroen let Mads drive one in Spain, so more good drivers get to try it out and give feedback.
Mads has R5 experience from DS3 and Fiesta. The Ds3 was difficult to drive fast with on gravel, the C3 looks better. But remain to be seen, they need a quick gravel driver to drive it in anger!

Maybe someone will find it interesting. Hungarian team LPWM Sport, who already own one Hyundai i20 R5, are planning to buy two such cars in 2019:

Yesterday Chris Ingram posted he was doing a 'shakedown' of the Polo R5 so it seems he's continuing in that car for the Jim Clark. I don't know if its because the 2nd Yaris hasn't arrived yet at...
British & Irish Championships...
