From that translation is he saying there will be a full-time second driver or that they will rotate the second seat? It's not clear.

Sounds to me like there will be a second full-time driver, he just hasn't decided who it will be yet... and Breen & Lefebvre are not the only choices.
That is exactly what is reported - so a fixed 2 driver team for 2017. Are we taking it for granted that KM is no.1?Quote:

Like the article says - rumoured guys are Neuville and Sordo - both of which have I think indicated they would like to stay at Hyundai. Not a huge amount of choice for Citroen to be honest? Same issue Tommi has.Quote:

I guess Citroen have no intention of wasting time and want to hit the ground running in 2017 with a complete driver package. If I was Breen / Lefebvre I wouldnt be too confident of getting the drive...
I wonder what the score is with Tanak & M-Sport for next year ?
Good work, wish the mainstream UK magazines had more of this content.Quote:

It's under discussion and the decision is to be made by WRC Promoter in a month. This is despite neither Dmack or Michelin asking for it. Not even Capito supports it.
After the great Dmack-related storylines last weekend it's yet more lunacy from the people in charge.
