Mikkelsen due to below text from Citroen need to test and work with, for him new engineers, to get the set-up of car and chemistry with the engineers to improve pace.
Maybe to get an appartment close to HQ, to be at Citroen Racing HQ to speed up the team bonding prosess would be a good idea.

Andreas' approach has been constructive and positive. Following the day of pre-event testing, we knew that the C3 WRC would need to be adapted to his driving style, which doesn't involve left-foot braking at all. Clearly, that takes time and so this rally became something of a prolonged test session. More than the actual result – eighth overall – we think we did some good work together. He managed to identify the points we need to work on first and foremost, and to achieve some initial improvements."
