I guess Mads is ,,very happy,, about these news.. struggling the whole season with the C3R5 crap, hoping to get in the WRC.. but now nothing.

Lappi is the biggest loser here. His career could end straight away

I wonder if anyone can come up with a budget to run a couple of the Citroen’s next year as Hansen did with the Peugeot’s in WRX?
Ostberg/Mikkelsen Norwegian consortium maybe! Ha ha

Basically, Citroen is unwilling to give some trust to Lappi & decided to bailout instead..

Between this statement blaming Ogier and their statement blaming Meeke last year this all smells of a team who couldn't hold their hands up and say they've made mistakes.
In their pomp they were the benchmark but the last few years have left a bitter taste in the mouth. Still very sorry to see them go however as it leaves 2 less seats available in a driver market that is already crying out for more opportunities.
Will be a huge pity to see (potentially) Latvala, Meeke, Breen, Mikkelesen, Paddon, Ostberg and more on the sidelines in 2020. Makes the Championship less exciting and competitive

I see a few people saying they are blaming Ogier, I’m not sure that’s the case really, they are just telling the truth, that without him and they almost certainly don’t have a chance to win, so why spend the €Xmillion when they are set to leave anyway.
Doesn’t mean I agree, or want them to go but I understand their position.
