Pretty cool cars. It looks like the Citroen/Ford rivalry will be just as strong next year as it has been over the last few years.
A Mini video is up from their recent test as well.

Yup,the unveil was already a while ago at Paris Auto Show or what it is called. Anyway the new cars looks aggressive and I really like them. I also dont expect that to be Citroen´s final livery. In the end there are Pirelli texts on the car and the same sponsors so I see it just as a sponsor happy thing.
By the videos I would say that its hard to say who is ahead a bit. Example Ford will get a lot of data from different kind of conditions and know what parts are easily broken and where to make improvements by this years Fiesta S2000´s from all around the world.
Then again Citroen has been testing the new car like crazy day and night and somehow them engine seems to be getting more rews. Atleast this year its been a good thing but is it that at the future?? Also at videos it looks to be a bit faster car and also a bit more stable.
Mini is then again, a new car and them looks to be taking the car to a good way but somehow I just think that it won´t be at the level of Ford and Citroen. I still hope to be wrong.
Both teams still know that by new regulations and by new rules like after round5 comes the engine rule, both teams know that reliability and quickest car starting from round1 will make a big result at 2011. I would say that the team what has produced the quickest but also a reliable car for start of the season will win the whole year. Still I afraid that as Ive seen in my dreams,this will turn out as a bad thing for WRC and nothing wont kinda change except Loeb won´t be the quickest man around..
With this I mean that as everyone is expecting so much.. the result at the events will still be: Cit,Cit,Cit,Cit,For,For,For,For,Min,Min
