Feel free to discuss mates!

Plain and simple , there is no No 1 . If your team mate has a chance to win later in the year you back him up , if you and your team mate can win the championship , always remember the team comes first.

2. Sébastien Ogier (FRA) / Julien Ingrassia (FRA) - Citroën DS3 WRC
My best result on this rally, not the one I expected though, but not a bad result. Maybe not my last time at Citroen but I don't know.

We are talking about Ogier.Not generally.
Ogier was 30 points behind Loeb but didn t accept orders,and didn t like to do that you wrote above.Thats why he left Citroen.Is there a reason to leave Citroen for a No2 again in different car?

Must be crazy to leave a winning team. He had his chance to win in Australia but went off.

I'm sure you are right but I would like to think Mikko won't give up. not just like that!

Solberg recently said he had the option of going to another form of motorsport in 2012. What could this be? Global Rallycross? The profile of Global Rallycross and the X Games would suit Solberg perfectly.
