more info on the 2004 WRC driver lineups!

wow, check this out:

http://www.wrc.com/en_GB/News/2003/0...EUGEOTDEAL.htm

it looks like Peugot is going to announce that they've signed Freddy Loix as the third driver for their 2004 WRC squad. i'm guessing that based on this, it'll be Gronholm, Rovanperra and Loix in the 206s next season.

this should make every paved road tremble in fright:

finally, it looks like Citroen has two driver signed up. Loeb has had a contract for a while now, but it appears that they just signed Simon Jean-Joseph, presumeably as the third and non-podium driver. it'll be interesting to see if Sainz or McRae gets the third seat. my money is on Sainz.

Aren't they going to use the 307 next year?

i don't know, i haven't heard anything about a new car for Peugot. if there is anything out there about a new 307, please feel free to post it up here. i'd be really interested in it, and i'm sure i wouldn't be the only one.

I think the 307 is a little fugly myself. It's kinda a cross between the Hyundai Tiburon and the Xsara (kinda) Same rear wing as the Xsara (for now)
