Also Not being sent properly trained technicians from ASM Motorsport to rally NZ. Also wrong suspension I believe as shown in the Rally NZ domain stage, not sure the proper details on the last bit though.Quote:

I hope Peugeot come back to the WRC now...
Was thinking the same thing when I saw it, most of the cars they showed (205's, 206) were top WRC level cars, only the 207 S2000 was in a lower class. Now with the R5 category being so close to the WRC it would be great if they decided to take it just one step further. But it seems unlikely that we will again have a championship with both Citroen and Peugeot as they are basically the same company.Quote:
