    With Citroen and DG Sport it is same like with Skoda and Toksport or Hyundai with CHL.

    Yes, it's the official Citroen team. Both Rossel and Gryazin are supported by the factory. You can see their press releases on the offcial website of Stellantis - the owner of Citroen brand:

    I think it's the thing with cheaper fees. When it's official brand's entry it's automaticaly more expensive. One example: when you inquiry for a party place/picnic... and you say it's for marriage, it will be 3 times more expensive and when you say it will be for some birthday or random picnic, it's their regular price.

    I think it's more politics.

    These are not brands that are by their philosophy to be engaged in factory operations in WRC. So engaging with customer operations - no doubt with heavily subsidised agreements with drivers - allows them to continue.

    Didn't Meeke crash yesterday? Won't help dominating if he crash.

    It was on qualifying stage, he rolled the car and it was said that he won't be able to start the rally. But team managed to repair the car and he did start and dominated drivers like Rossel, Gryazin and Loubet.
