I doubt he is worried about the chance of Chris passing Loeb!Quote:

For sure Ireland is not the easiest place to make a first outing. There's little place for errors and let's face it, Atkinson is the one who might make some ;)
However, I wish him best of luck. :up:
First,do you think that Quensel would allow this??I doupt it!Second:Malcolm may feel a little bit worried about Chris in a C4 both for BP Ford and Stobbart...So,a previous Champion (Petter,Marcus)could have a ride for Stobbart!(?)
For 180 000 euro's he will be quick!!!
That's the problem. 180k euro only get you a car with C4 on it. It's up to Citroen to set the spec. Neither Citroen, Peugeot or M-Sport/Ford has reputation of leasing out the best machinery. Even last years Fords was changed if they got to fast. I know Henning and Galli discussed this and Henning even changed settings under and after stages to confuse the mecs on what to do.Quote:
