Tabloid style title and article.
Ogier is very clever. He knows that much of next year's championship interest is on VW shoulders, so he says to the press that things may not be at 100% from the beginning, so that everyone dosen't start to say they are rubish if they dont do well in the first half of the year.
Maybe they had a lot more power just to test drivetrain in the beginning of testing?Quote:

I don't really think people are expecting from them to win right from the start. And with current Rally standards there is no room for big surprises as we had seen some in the past. May be Ogier is just like that, wants to win always, and may be this a French thing ;)Quote:

Citroen doesn't hold the Manu record, unlike Loeb for Drivers, it is Lancia. But probably you're somewhat right, 2013 will begin new, more exciting era for WRC, lets hope so... Doubtfully though it will be "one man show", later years new Manus will come from east also, competition grows bigger...Quote:
