the changes in technical rules to bring inn 1.6 litre engines instead the 2.0 for the 2011 session for the manufacturers title...citroen is ready with the DS3 and ford with the fiesta.....i really feel that citreon will really have tough time from 2011....cuz i really din like the DS3 version being a citroen fan maself.....i have a stange feelin that the fiesta will be far superior from the DS3 car.....or who knows may the MINI will be better than both these cars :shock:

the mini looks wonderful and the testing videos also look nice, not sure but on the vids it looks like it has a really long first gear, might change by the time it comes out to the track

The mini looked fast as well, hope it lasts (reliability)

With the absence of an active centre differential - a part of the car which offers better grip when turning into a corner - on next year’s WRCs, there had been talk that there could be a return to the super-sideways approach to the stages. Lapworth has ruled that out.

“Driving styles have moved on a great deal,” he said. “The drivers have learned now that the fastest way is the straightest way. That won’t change, no matter what happens to the cars.” Source wrc.com

The corners might get slow if the above said is right.

I would still like to believe it would be DS3 and Loeb for 2011
