I don't think Loeb not doing any events next year for Citroen has anything to do with money.

More likely to do with Ogier not being happy about Loeb coming in for just a few rallies. Seems pretty clear already that Citroen have given him all they can, in terms of a massive contract, full backing on how to improve the car (with big developments on the way anyway), plus probably a say over this matter.

Ogier did say he would like Loeb in the team if he was doing a full season, but having Loeb turn up when he wants clearly pisses him off.

No way i am believing Citroen couldn't find money to give Mr Loeb a few rallies..., it probably pays for itself in terms of sponsorship and publicity.
