I said it before and I will say it again, I get a bad feeling about the whole Citroen effort this year.
Let's list it again:
- driver picks in November
- spend a year preparing then don't have setup for Monte and Sweden (and admit it afterwards)
- only two cars on first 3 rallies when M-sport is up to 5
- have wrong suspension settings for Argentina that cause crashes (I claim it's also a lot about the drivers, but Citroen themselves blame setup, so let's follow them on that => shows they haven't prepared well?)
and now this.
Budget too low? Bad decisions on what to spend money on? Not good enough engineers? Bad management?
These are the serious questions I would ask if I were Citroen board member.

No word from or about Meeke since the crash yesterday... the silence is deafening.

#Strongcar... It will need to be if they haven't sorted out the suspension/handling issues by Finland.....
Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

M-Sport report:

It was on qualifying stage, he rolled the car and it was said that he won't be able to start the rally. But team managed to repair the car and he did start and dominated drivers like Rossel, Gryazin...
