From the beginning it was planned though that Breen would only do 11 rounds. Lefebvre has been on the sideline a bit and Meeke was supposed to do the entire season. Al-Qassimi pays for himself and their season is screwed up anyways. Besides, Citroen have said that they are looking towards next season.
I would also think that Citroen couldn't keep Mikkelsen rather than that he is leaving them. They had four drivers already and if they can't have all the drivers because of budgetary reasons it seems more reasonable, despite his results, to let Mikkelsen go.
