Crazy camera man though, slap bang right on the run-off on most of the corners there...

2017 Yaris WRC:

2017 i20 WRC

 

[Reno_LV]

All of them at Paris show now, Citroen looks mega!

 

[DC.]

Just need the Polo WRC

Just need the Polo WRC

And the Fiesta, it's supposed to be based on the 2017 Fiesta road car.

New i20 isn't bad, but the wing on the Toyota is still ridiculous. With a good livery I reckon the Polo will still be the best looking.

 

[DC.]

Hope the Citroen livery is better than the concept.

M-Sport need the Fiesta to be a great base for a rally car as they need to sell lots of R5s never mind WRCs.

Just caught up on the Rally France (Corsica). Chris was going well again, if a bit too well in the end, lol Full points for effort though, 16s quicker than everyone else on one stage!

Watched it yesterday as well. His crash shows how much they trust the notes. Drove it as a 3 left, just took the lock of and accelerated, into a tree

 

[Graham]

Was it a wrong note by Paul, or a wrong note in the book that neither of them picked up on in recce ?

 

[PaulYDP]

Correct call by Paul, wrong note from the recce, Kris took full blame for it. Said he'd amended the note on second pass through the recce but got it wrong so he got on the throttle part way round the corner and it tightened so he understeered into the tree.

 

[svensktoppen]

He said it was a wrong note, not whose fault it was - though he did say he had made a change to the note himself

 

[svensktoppen]

Beat me to it Paul

Noticed on Facebook Craig Breen has a drive for 2 years with Citroen

Is there any more details on the deal?

Citroen announces Breen and Lefebvre as Meeke's 2017 WRC team-mates

Great news. Hopefully the C3 WRC is up to it.

 

[Reno_LV]

He deserved it, demonstrated great results in rallies he was given a chance to prove himself! Time for the likes of Mads to be replaced by young talents!

 

[DC.]

Brand new 2017 Fiesta WRC testing y'day:

Mads is fortunate that M-Sport need money or else he would be out the door.
Him & Camilli should really be replaced by Ött & Elvyn for next year.
