Budar sounds like their hopes are pinned on signing Ogier. Good luck with that one !

Let’s give them a break. They’ve already fix the car but Meeke’s episode made them lose a bit of focus. They now need some stability (having Breen moaning doesn’t help…) and get a proper budget to keep development and run 3 cars next season. Even without Ogier, Neuville or Tanak (current top drivers) they can have a competitive driver line up, if they choose wisely.

Well you the smart ones, tell us dumb ones who are top drivers besides Ott, Ogi and Neuville. Latvala, Meeke? Maybe Loeb the only one but he will not embarass himself, I think. Mikkelsen is out of reach and he is not in that league yet. Lappi, Paddon, Evans... Sordo give up and probably don't want full year anymore.
But by all that what I see is one name on side that we all forget about is.... wait for it.............The one and only Qassimi........ Oh shit he is worse than R2 cars but hey if he is goving Budar a paycheck why not set him as leading driver....

Multiple rally winners that are out of contracts after 2018:
Ogier,
Neuville
Latvala
Single rally winners that are out of contract after 2018:
Paddon,
Sordo
Østberg
(think Evans also has contract next year)
Unexpected signings might happen, like when Neuville went from M-Sport to Hyundai after finishind 2nd in 2013.
It is also possible they might let Tidemand drive some rallies that don't overlap with WRC2 plans this year.

he has said without Kris development and setup knowledge Citroen are going to struggle. Looking at shakedown results he has a point.
I don't think he was moaning, he said it's a shame Kris has gone but it is what it is. Was probably just answering a loaded question from the press.

Almost all Finn's since Paavo Nurmi who are fast in their sport have been called "Flying", particularly the 1960's rally drivers, but I was actually thinking of "Flying Finnish" - the timing line at...
What's the first thing to come to...
