Citroën C3 WRC ! The End Of a Legacy | Dirt Tribute | Full HD

Показать описание

The Citroën C3 WRC is a rally car designed and developed by the Citroën World Rally Team to compete in the World Rally Championship. The car, which is a replacement for the successful Citroën DS3 WRC, is based on the Citroën C3. The C3 WRC made its début at the start of the 2017 season, where it was driven by Craig Breen, Stéphane Lefebvre and Kris Meeke, with Khalid Al Qassimi entering a fourth car at selected events.
Citroën formally announced its intentions to withdraw from full-time competition at the end of the 2015 season in order to focus on the development of the C3 WRC. The team contested selected events during the 2016 season, using the DS3 WRC as a testing platform for selected parts. Further testing and development was carried out using the Citroën C-Elysée WTCC, the car used by Citroën in the World Touring Car Championship. The C3 WRC's début in 2017 coincided with the widespread revisions to the sport's technical regulations.
In a surprising decision, Citroën decided to abandon the World Rally Championship (WRC) with immediate effect, accusing the lack of a top driver for its team after the departure of Sébastian Ogier.
Although it signed a commitment with the WRC until the end of 2020, the formation ends up stopping its involvement in the main rally competition, leaving also the duo Esapekka Lappi and Janne Ferm.
