[WRC] News & rumours (part IV) 2016

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

unfair yes, but good for the sport. without that rule ogier might have been champion in germany, or even in finland.

and i still wonder how much of a difference starting first really makes. it seems far less than some drivers would like us to believe.

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

All 3 & 5-door models do... but share the same overall silhouette.

The 3-door i20 is a normal hatchback... a coupe in name only.

So the 2017 Polo isn't dead ... who are the private teams asking to run it then ??

Now You're trying to twist Your own statement while what You wrote before and what I answered simply wasn't true. Simple as that.

Bit silly when its not a different body shell to the 5-door. Plus they also have the Veloster which IS a coupe.

You also haven't answered why Veloster was coupé and I20 3D was not. I really want to see why do You think so.

"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.

Does that mean another coming seasons of a team dominating the championship!! Please Heavens above NO...
