    Re: Citroen driver solitaire

    Didn't see that one coming. It seems that Citroen is scaling back it's investment in rallying?? Taking on two drivers which won't be expensive.
    Where is Hirvonen going next year? Sordo?

    I guessed Ostberg and Sordo. But Sordo found a better team and Citroen had no other choice than Meeke.

    It's a bit early to judge Hyundai as a better team than Citroen don't you think?

    And Meeke has been in the running for a Citroen seat for a long time so he was hardly "leftovers"

    Meeke got his drive because Abu Dhabi are fans of him for some reason. And Östberg because he is cheap / salary from own sponsors

    maybe its because he isnt 'beige' looking forward to the '14 season, Ogier may get to be champion again but there will be a lot of other things to follow.

    Re: Citroen driver solitaire

    Is Citroen scaling back its rally commitments in favour of the WTCC or are they funding both projects with the same amount? As the WRC program now has Abu Dhabi, would it fair to think the WTCC program will have private funding?

    Meeke and Ostberg. So with the reduced chassis these year do they get 3 each?

    If so, Meeke will use his share before halfway in the season.
