    What should Meeke do more to make you lose hopes he will perform consistently?
    He has been the consistence nemesis since his first contract with Citroen and now he is 40.
    He is a nice guys and spectacular driver but has always missed what modern rally requires nowadays, the right balance between speed and consistency.

    Sure, but the decision will be made on the basis of his 2018 campaign. Just give him a chance.. in a car that works. Even if he doesn't win the championship, but finishs in top 3, there would be a strong case to keep him on.

    Top 3?either you are a big fan of him or very young.Ogier,Neuville,Tanak,Mikkelsen(maybe Lappi andLatvala )will be ahead of him at the end of the championship.the ranking is random.I would also say Breen but he will miss some rallies.So i really don’t see top 3.

    Loeb says the suspension geometry changes give him more confidence in the car.

    The C3 gravel improvement was already noticed in Catalunya and Australia. Since Christophe Besse arrival, in August, the team has managed to understand how to improve the car; till then they were all, including Meeke, clueless.
