Depends if he can get the latest update of the Citroen, with the new aero and suspension etc..Lappi already said it was quite a big improvement. Might be worth it for 1 season if he can, after that lack of development will hinder.
Private team can't make new homologations to C3. Citroen Racing should help with updates though if some team would like to run the cars. But I'd say it is very unlikely to happen.
Dates for Round 1 of the 2026 European Rally Championship are 17th-19th April.
