I totally agree with that, compared to Matton so far he seems to have fixed most of C3 issues and got Ogier to join (Loeb's performance probably also helped with that). Compare that with Matton taking year off and coming back with both car and driver (Lefevbre for sure) issues while not picking any of the 3 VW drivers. Didn't look like kicking Meeke was his decision, but maybe he used it to argue that he needs funds for Ogier if they force him to kick Meeke.


- He thinks it's risky that Lappi will not be satisfied as 2nd driver at Citroen and says as Ogier he would prefer Breen over Lappi.

That's imo kinda surprising, even to the point when I would call that UK journalist bias.


- Clark sees Meeke as possible at Msport and says rumors say he is willing to drive for free. Mentions also the Toyota rumor but doesn't seem to believe it that much.

- Thinks Hyundai stays the same.
Pretty pointless KT by C.Clark... told us nothing new factually, just total speculation.

And he said the Ogier announcement timing was strange... and then expained why it wasnt ! (for Ogier).

Nothing about the effect on M-Sport or UK fans directly before their home rally. Also nothing about the real reason for the move ie. Ford not fully backing the team.

BTW, what is behind the Meeke/Wilson fall-out in the past ?
