    This doesn't come out of nowhere, she lives with Seb and they surely talk about his job and how things are going. If Seb were happy about how things are going at Citroen she wouldn't have tweeted something like this. This probably just shows what Seb has told her behind closed doors at home about how he feels about Citroen.

    Citroen Racing or Budar can do what they want, like it or not, beg him etc.. Last answer comes from Citroen HQ, where that kind of stuff is no accepted..

    Honestly she's overreacting big time. Ogier was fastest on stage 1, is still fighting for the title. The car and driver combined duo has been underperforming at times but has been reliable so far. Frustration has gotten the better of her but it's been couple of years when her husband has not been the fastest driver rather than the smartest.

    It's motorsport and things happen. The Ogier's have been flying so high so many years that they have forgotten some principles.

    Pity that this all has happened but it motorosport and it's life and please do not forget that everything is still on the table, no need to cry until all is decided.

    Citroën can pull the plug, can sack him if the HQ gets mad, specially if their best marketing tool has vomited on their reputation. Nobody is god, not even 6-times world champ.

    Btw, hat off for Mrs. Tanak: she never publicly complained about the Yaris poor reliability, which prevent her husband to be WDC in the last 2 years…
    Im not talking specifically about reliability because in that department Citroen is definitely far from being the worse. However speed wise the car is just not there, and consequently Ogier is pushing far beyond the means of the car.

    If you still for some reason you have something covering your eyes and believe the Citroen is as fast as the Toyota, maybe you should have a conversation with Lappi.

    Even if it's true she's a public person and must display some restraint and dignity. The fact that the most powerful person in the world has been posting bullshit on social media doesn't mean it's a new norm to do that.

    Besides that 100% reliability simply doesn't exist. Problems do appear and mistakes do happen, sometimes in the worst possible time. That's part of the game. The team has been working hard through the year to help Ogier to win the title and then one tweet of his girlfriend comes and insults everybody. That's not how adult people act.
    Stupid is as stupid does. Forrest Gump

    As Meeke said that on 2nd rally with this car. And what he get? Banned from mid of the season. But Ogier is French-boy so nothing will happen with him on French team.

    We now this already. Cuz we see Citroen performance on 3 yrs. Another way say it clearly. But as we see some people (Mads) want to drive even that car(p) ))
