[WRC] News & rumours (part IV) 2016

"We all agreed that the current regulations were too unfair to the championship leader," Thierry Neuville commented on Thursday. A decision that should further motivate Sébastien Ogier to retake next year and thus to join a new team after the withdrawal of VW. "I would like to see him at M-Sport, but I see him at Citroën, because it seems so logical," said the Hyundai Belgian. In any case, I hope he will be there because a Championship without him would devalue the title. Nobody is unbeatable, but Seb is harder to beat than the others. "

"I would see him at M-Sport," attests Michel Nandan. Because it would be less difficult to beat a Ford? "Of course, a Seb Ogier at the wheel of a Citroen, it can be dreadful," admits the boss of Hyundai, amused.

It's an hatchback coupe, like Scirocco. Visually, one of the most striking common features in this type of bodywork is the gentle slope of the last column of the top/roof.

The Scirocco is a seperate model and coupe bodyshell. There is a 3-door Golf which isnt called a coupe.

It is different bodyshell.

Why 4-door 5 seat Veloster is Coupé and 3-door 5 seat i20 is not? An honest question.

Just having a different no. of doors doesnt make them different models. I have a 3-door Focus ST but its the same car as the 5-door.

You spoke about bodyshells. 3-door I20 and 5-door I20 have different bodyshells. That's a fact.

Maybe this evening in Vienna, where he gets his trophy (with all other FIA world champions).

A Focus isn't an i20.

If Ogier goes to Ford and beat (normal) Neuville, we will remember that interview

Funny how so many people inside WRC are now saying the order rule was unfair but they stood quiet during the last two years…

So they already know that Ford isnt as good as Citroen?
