Dit las ik zojuist op rally-action.com:
In five consecutive years of competition in the World Rally Championship, Peugeot and Citroën has won five manufacturers titles and three drivers titles. These results reflect the diligent, passionate determination of each
marque, backed by a substantial financial commitment to motor sports
competition.
Due to tougher conditions in the car market, new opportunities in motor sports will be reviewed in 2005, with a view to enabling the Group to significantly cut its sports budgets.
Peugeot and Citroën will remain strongly committed to the World Rally Championship in 2005. However, PSA Peugeot Citroën has decided that the marques will no longer take part in the WRC beyond that date.
At the appropriate time, Citroën Sport and Peugeot Sport will announce the sports in which they will participate after 2005.
Mocht dit inderdaad zo zijn, en rally-action is over het algemeen zeer betrouwbaar en gaat voorzichtig om met dergelijke informatie, dan zou dat een groot verlies zijn voor het WRC.
