Citroen’s motorsport boss Olivier Quesnel said that Kimi Raikkonen and Petter Solberg will have the priority to drive for the Citroen « B » team in 2011.
Olivier Quesnel told web site www.wrc.com that he is confident to run four DS3s in the inaugural round of the 2011 WRC season, the Rally Sweden in February.
Team Citroen Racing revealed the identity of its works team,with Sebastien Ogier joigning Sebastien Loeb, but nothing has been finalised yet concerning the « B » team.
"We will have two teams next year but I can’t tell you who will be in the second team because we need to secure the budget first," said Olivier Quesnel.
"We are in hot demand but we would prefer to run drivers who have a budget and who are also very fast. We would be very pleased to run Kimi and Petter and I think they would be our priority, but in the end we will see."
Former Citroen driver Dani Sordo looks closer to a ride with Mini, as he is performing some tests aboard the Countryman this week in Sardegna.
