    Manu's Ch'ship was never realistic this season.

    As for Meeke he's still under contract at Citroen, not sacked.

    How could he drive with it already? You can't have extra parts on your road car without homologaton and if you got it installed and cops get you you immediately get fine and technical inspection. With WRC is little different and publicy all over the world I think that this is aginst the rules and need to get the fine...

    No one besides that site has mentioned it. Probably they got confused with pairing rule, not knowing Finland/Germany cars can’t be use in Turkey.

    Autosport on Ford's lack of support:

    "I have lost count of the number of times I've talked to Ogier and been left in no doubt his preferred option has always been to stay where he is. But he's made it equally clear that he wanted to see commitment from the Blue Oval.

    And when he said commitment, he meant money. Investment. Cash.

    We're all very well aware that Ford's stepped up its technical input into this year's car and, yes, there was a bunch of bodyshells handed over at the top of the programme. But that never was and never will be enough.

    Ford has reaped praise and pleasure from Sebastien Ogier's time at M-Sport and, as far as I can see, such return remains unwarranted.

    Ford of Europe's Gerard Quinn has worked tirelessly to try to tune America into rallying, but the reluctance from Detroit remains astonishing.

    For a genuinely small-change cash injection at M-Sport, I believe Ogier would have stayed where he was. If there'd been sensible investment, the Frenchman would have stayed even longer and likely won world championships for fun.

    Sitting firmly in front of an open goal, Ford has put the ball so high over the bar it will come down with snow on it.

    And when it does come down, Ogier will be long gone and would-be Ford world titles will be written in history.

    And they'll be written in French."
