But if we have loeb in a ds3 and ogier in a polo (reliable and fast?) in 2013 this could be an amazing season!!!

I hope Loeb becomes champion in 2012 so that gives him 9 titles, then he should give him the motivation to stay for 2013 to face Ogier's challenge. I fear Loeb (and Citroen) will run away and hide before facing VW/Ogier.

Why the doubt about Loeb in 2013? His new contract is for 2 years.

Citroen must stay until 2013 or they have to pay a fine to the FIA since they have a contract, so i guess we are going to see the clash for 1 year.

Is that true? Or Ogier has still a chance to be a test driver for hundai accent?
Anyway it means citroen has to stay, but not necessarily Loeb...

VW and Ogier have a lot of work to do before they managed to scare Citroen.First Ogier have to study how to finish rallies.

Loed has earned the right ot whatever he wants....he's never hidden before. If he wants to go at the end of next year that's his call. To suggest he'd be 'hiding' from a challenge - ha!
