How come that PH Xsara is so bad now when Galli is driving it?? Last year it was supposed to be a top machine, just the drivers couldn't use it

maybe Citroën tought the C4 wasn't going to be that fast in snow and early gravel rallyes, so besides being humiliated by Ford(if the car would have been slower) they avoided the chance of getting humiliated by themselves!

I think it's quite obvious they downgraded the cars, as I also think Ford downgrades the Stobbart and Munchis cars, can't blame both teams really, it's their cars

as I posted earlier but no one seemed to take notice, Carlsson has expressed disappointment when learning that kronos are using an older version of the Xsara than last year....

I disagree, I believe there is really a problem with the cars. Old or downgraded or setup problems or all of them I don't know, but facts are: Carlsson so slow everywhere (even Sweden !), how come ... Stohl used Xsara in 2005 and he was not this bad ... both Galli and Stohl slower with Xsara than the 307 :\ the only good thing was Galli performance on early Sweden stages, but I think it was thanks to the snow Pirelli tyres mainly.

I don't think they're slower than they used to be with Xsaras. I think C4s and Focus' are faster this year.

:laugh: I love this, last year when Toni and Janne complained about the car, it was ignored by so many here. The drivers got bashed. :laugh: NOw the car is suddenly SOOO BAD
