Loeb + Gronholm WRC 2006

As most of you are aware,Citroen will be withdrawing from WRC at the end of 2005 and returning in 2007.Was reading Autosport this morning and read that Citroen will be sponsoring a dream team for the 2006 that will be using the current Xsara.Drivers listed for the team are none other than current 2 times world champion Sebastien Loeb and 2 times world champion Marcus Gronholm.What an awesome team.

It would certainly be interesting to see how the two compare in identical cars. I think Gronholm has been hampered by the peugeot this season, especially on the reliability front.

Anyway, by 2007 Mitsubishi will be wiping the floor with the competition again!

Gigi Galli for world champion :muhaha:

I would agree,Gronholm hasnt been able to shine without the 206.Galli is a good driver but only as a number 2.Was personally hoping that either Gronholm or Loeb would be going to Mitsubishi but no such luck.It will be one to watch without a doubt.

686UB,is the exhaust and filter on yet?

Nope
Just trying to find the time to get over to AMS to get it done.
Absolutely hectic at work at the moment, barely got time to take a shit, let along have a day off to get the car sorted.

Oh, I wasn't serious about Galli by the way, he's way too excitable to ever be a serious contender.
