Duval or Loix to Citroën

LOL surely matton wouldn't ?

I agree, I think Citroen are doing the same as Hyundai and are looking for a Tarmac no 2 but what was on offer wasn't a good enough package for Dani Sordo. Duval is probably being negotiated with for the tarmac role but I don't see him being the No1 - leaves Ostberg or Meeke (more likely gravel No2)

First off, if ostberg and meeke both got full seasons im sure meeke would finish ahead of mads in the championship. Meeke is also good on tarmac, not brilliant i admit but much better than ostberg(who is quite franky terrible) and with duval being away for soo long, i think kris would be faster than him too on tarmac. Ostberg should only be a #2 driver at best imo, and citroen shouldn't go anywhere near duval despite their obvious lack of options.

Bouffier is a better option than Duval. Come to think of it Didier Auriol, Jean Ragnotti, Jean Pierre Nicholas etc are better than Duval.

It seems odd to me why no one in rallying scene even mentions Ott Tänak as a possibility... he won stages on tarmac in Gemany, Spain and France on his debut season with wrc, showing he has potential to be fast on every surface (having gravel and snow has his favorites), he made lot of mistakes , but so did Neuville for example, they where separated only by 1 point at the end of the season and look where Neuville is now... and Tänak is not even mentioned in the wildest speculations...

psst..it is a well kept secret

Why most of you think that one driver with 30's are older? Rally is not football.

All of you are missing the old rally times, but, if in those times, rally was for Men. The support categories exists for some reason. Loix still fast f.e.

The problem was not his driving but his attitude.

Not really private. Just wanted to know WRC salaries compared to F1 salaries. F1 salaries are published everywhere and i heard a rumour some time ago that Ogier earns 10 mil € a year.
