 He helped in the DS3 WRC development, and was also main development driver for the 208 T16/DS3 R5. Now, I don't want to lay the blame at anyone's door, and maybe this comparison is completely irrelevant, but those R5 cars have suffered from the same problems as the C3 last year: good cars on tarmac, but on gravel, the rear has less than satisfactory grip/behaviour, and had many problems with bad bump stop settings/management (which is a design flaw, but why did they design it like that?). So I'm not saying Meeke is to blame (entirely), as they have used far less drivers for the R5s and the C3 tests than they used to for any of their new cars before (for the DS3, they used Loeb, Sordo, Bouffier, Sarrazin, Meeke, Ogier, etc.), which could clearly affect the development, but the cars he was the main development driver for have suffered from similar problems, which is quite interesting I think.

Toyota aren't at fault, but being the sole WRC27 maker doesn't work.. The fans view matters if they dont accept a one-sided Championship. Jon is entitled to his opinion and many agree with him....
