It will probably a private entry, he will pay for it so he won't take a seat from anyone else.Quote:

Maybe Citroen will 'introduce a new name' to the WRC team. Matton thinks there are too few drivers available to challenge at the top, so he may choose someone without much WR car experience.

Plus a young driver will drive for free, whilst some of the other names previously mentioned linked with Citroen will want to be paid. I would guess its either Lefebrve or Chardonnet.
Lefebrve is very promising indeed but I think honestly to promote him in Citroen factory team is a little bit earlier. It will be better for him if he drives next season R5 machinery and learn all the rallies in the championship. As of Seb. Chardonnet I don't think he's fast enough to be in WRC car - just look his results this year.
