JWRC 2014

We hear talk about that JWRC will move from using R2 cars to R3!
That will effectivly kill off WRC-3, and make R2 a class made for regional series.

If the total package price for a JWRC seson will stay the same, or even decrease for 14 this move will become a winner for the World Championship, if total cost for a full season will go dramatically up, this will not fly in my opinion.
We are talking junior drivers, normally with limited market value (yet).

What does FIA need to do to make the JWRC blossom?

Yes I just read an article with Mahonen's quote. These words for "more powerful machinery" is just demagogy, trying to mask the truth that they move to R3 simply because citroen has car in this class. Nothing sporty in this move, only politics/business - there are good money coming from this and other people also want it.

DS3 R3T isn't exactly cheap car to run. But we don't know the conditions. Will all cars be again prepared by one team? Anyway I can't imagine it would be cheaper series with reasonably more expensive cars.

Great to my opinion if FIA takes DS3 R3T for JWRC :bounce:

Official today wednesday apparently, DS3 R3s for the JWRC(also counting for WRC3) ;)

I expect an influx of skilled motor technicians to the UK ;)

Did Citroen say that they would be involved in JWRC 2014?
