Btw, did anyone catch the news that local rally radio commentator Riku Tahko announced (he claimed to have heard it from an insider) before the PS today, that Citroen has snatched the "chief engineer" (who wasn't identified) from M-Sport for 2018? Or was it even news at all?
If you compare the after-stage comments between the two drivers there certainly was quite some difference. I dare not say more else the hater pointing mafia will be on me.

That said it might also be due to their personalities, listening to Lappi and Sunninen is also completely different even when they both do well.

Interesting news about engineers, in general I think there is too little info about them. They are quite important for the end results often more than the team managers (but then again team managers usually choose the engineers).
I wonder what FX is doing (Polo chief engineer/designer). Not quite sure he would be interested in joining Citroen, I think he left them to work for Solbergs team before going to VW, dunno for what reason. But he might be interested in joining others.
