Oh yes, because the whole season is decided halfway through the first rally isn't it. :rolleyes:

In Monte 1:40 is nothing in my opinion, one wrong tyre choice and they are behind JML

But I have to agree to Kremer. WRC2 was meant as a championship for privateers and teams. This year it will even get worse for real privateers if next to Skoda also M-Sport is stepping up with Camili and Suninens WRC2 campaign.

I would even go further and would not allow P1 drivers from the last some x years to enter in WRC2 like Mikkelsen this time. They can enter a R5 car, but not in WRC2.

ERC and TER is maybe better then for them..

To be honest they have right, maybe he is not a world champion but for sure he is way better than actual Citroen line-up.

yes but it was VW fault not citroens, if those useless cheaters announced their plans beforehand then i am sure mikkelsen would be in a proper team.

The only people the norwegians should be angry with are the finish village team of nobodies favouring Latvala because of the manager.

It is when you are up against the likes of Ogier and Loeb. Then mistakes like Meeke's isn't an option.

Clearly the transponder is rendered useless when placed in the charisma field of the Champ (or e h just turns it off!)

for sure something is not right AND with car. You can see it from Meekes times.
If you are not confident you cant push at these type of roads.Just see Evans yesterday.

Got a feeling Breen could be Citroen's lead driver before the year end.

Hopefully we do not see that Joke lefebre in any kind of car again.

They should break the contract and sign Mikkelsen NOW !!!!
