I haven't read that. Adu Dhabi will sponsor WRC and WTC then?Quote:

I know but the article is from Rally Finland and not Citroën.
At the time of the announcement is was announced as a 3 year deal. No words as to in what series.
How can Rally Finland know that it is indeed for WRC? I can't really explain in English what I mean. :p
I understand, NORF organisers say Citroen will stay in the WRC for another 3 years, but nothing official from Citroen themselves?Quote:

I cant remember seeing anything on WRC.com about the confirmation of citroen staying (but my interest in motorsport in general isn't as strong in the winter when theres no competition).
Was there an announcement from Citroen early in december that we have missed? Or do the NORF organisers know something we dont?
Well, all I know is what is said in the article, I don’t have any inside information. What’s surprised me is the article says that the news has already been announced in December but I can’t recall seeing any news about it. I’ll try to translate it:
“By the French manufacturer already earlier in December announced news, the manufacturer will stay in the WRC for at least three more years.”
Isn´t the fact that Mikko was there and of course the CoC of NORF as well, a kind of garantie for the truth of the message?
If Block was serious about a WRC campaign, you'd thik he would back a two-car team to race as the Monster WRT or "Hoonigan Race Division", rather than entering events himself.Quote:
