Of course this isn’t the only reason but I believe it’s one part of it for sure. Originally Posted by AL14

Lappi is the biggest loser here. His career could end straight away

I wonder if anyone can come up with a budget to run a couple of the Citroen’s next year as Hansen did with the Peugeot’s in WRX?
Ostberg/Mikkelsen Norwegian consortium maybe! Ha ha

Basically, Citroen is unwilling to give some trust to Lappi & decided to bailout instead..

What a massive shame. So many potential ramifications. Originally Posted by Andre Oliveira

Between this statement blaming Ogier and their statement blaming Meeke last year this all smells of a team who couldn't hold their hands up and say they've made mistakes.
In their pomp they were the benchmark but the last few years have left a bitter taste in the mouth. Still very sorry to see them go however as it leaves 2 less seats available in a driver market that is already crying out for more opportunities.
Will be a huge pity to see (potentially) Latvala, Meeke, Breen, Mikkelesen, Paddon, Ostberg and more on the sidelines in 2020. Makes the Championship less exciting and competitive

If they would all join R5, then this would be much more interesting campaign than WRC... Originally Posted by Jewy46

I see a few people saying they are blaming Ogier, I’m not sure that’s the case really, they are just telling the truth, that without him and they almost certainly don’t have a chance to win, so why spend the €Xmillion when they are set to leave anyway.
Doesn’t mean I agree, or want them to go but I understand their position.

It seems that rumors are getting stronger that Yuki will be gone at the end of the year. The way that second seat eats up drivers it wouldn't shock me.
