Citroen WRT

[wrc2017]

It's hard for you to swallow that Østberg was only 32sec behind Tanak and not the 2/3min you expected isn't it...?
I think that's quite good value for money considering Toyota did near 20 days of test before Finland and Citroën only 3.

He done better than I expected, buts it obvious the these improvement to the cars, which started in development about this time last year, are only bringing the C3 to where it should have been a year ago.

But other facts remain.

-Otsberg made use of his road position advantage on day one, and was able to hang with Tanak
-Tanak took 35s from Otsberg on Day 2, then sat on it Day 3
-Otsberg cannot win a rally on pure pace.
- Meeke won this rally by the same amount Otsberg was behind the leader, so Citroen still have some way to go.

The C3 is not as well developed as the DS3, relative to its respective piers.
