Could have been dealt better by Loeb/Prodrive side.. but it is how it is..
i wonder if Neuville has Elenas number...
Sad decision, great character, but I do love his video. I feel like it's the Frenchist thing I've ever seen. Take a drink every time he goes for a gallic shrug! :D

I appreciate he's Monegasque, but...
What the heck... stupid stupid Prodrive... taking away Elena its like separating Tom and Jerry...
When was the last time Prodrive conducted a really successful motorsport programme?
- BRX: not so far...
- GCK WRX: nope, it got taken off them...
Mini WRC: nope. DR was made to leave it...
FPV in Australia: they burned through a lot of Ford's money and patience...
Quite right that Elena points back to Petter in 2003. That's a long time ago....
They succeeded with Aston Martin in WEC and Le Mans.
Yes and no; they've been successful in the GTE classes, however the dreadful AMR-One LMP1 was a disaster.......Quote:

It’s probably a weight saving tactic.
I find these news overly dramatic, when Loeb's career is close to being over, especially in WRC.
Maybe Prodrive has a point? I don't think Loeb would agree with this if he thinks Prodrive is completely wrong. Maybe he realises he has little change to win Dakar with Elena.
I guess they will still compete together in some (fun) rallies. He thinks about competing with his 306 Maxi in some rallies in France
Yeah, maybe Loeb agree with this move.

Last month @nicolasgilsoul
learned some experience with Michel Perin (old @MikkoWRC
codriver for Dakar) ... NG targets to be in #Dakar 2022 ... Why not him with Loeb ?

Nicolas Gilsoul will not be Seb Loeb's new raid teammate: "It was my plan A, but it's too early. I had contact with Seb, but unfortunately it won't be me. The timing is not good. I'm a challenge guy and I know exactly what I want to do, but I don't have any raid experience yet. "

Gilsoul has even less Cross-Country experience that Daniel Elena...if this was Loeb's/Prodrive's choice would be a little strange in my opinion.Quote:

Not sure Elena had looked too comfortable on the recent Dakar's anyway, with the heat, doing car repairs and digging out the car. His fitness hasnt looked the best for a while now.

Good news! We'll be starting our season next weekend on tarmac with Rally Brasov. It will serve as a warm-up for upcoming events
freezy conditions and potential for snow! Could be interesting
Thanks to @CitroenRacing
#CitroenHungary & #TRT for making it happen
brand new last gen Fiesta (chassis #14) for Barry McKenna, starting the ARA series in the US.
Due to regulations, it has 2.0l engine and older gen? no paddle-shift gearbox.
https://dirtfish.com/rally/ara/mcken...ta-wrc-to-ara/
Anybody knows more about the mods? What engine..?
That's the first time i hear about that.Quote:

P.S. On a side note - what surprised me is that the article says that as many as 45% of marriages in France end with a divorce.
That's not wrc news & rumor in my book.
I like when Elena is off the chain. I don't care if every bloodless corporate thing DR said is true and everything Elena said is lies, I'm on his side here.
Prodrive have a LOT of Bahrain money tied up in the project.
It wasn't overwhelmingly successful.
There would always have to be sacrificial lambs to justify the lack of performance. It seems Elena was one.
This is 'Client Management 101'.
NOT will be cursing us from whatever institution he is being held in!Quote:
