That's quite a contrast to the elbows out hockey style of driving he had a couple of seasons back. Goes to show the guy is smart and adapts to the car.

That electric C3 Citroën had some serious power and also seems to handle pretty well. Enjoyed watching him leave black lines on corner exits by the ton. Wonder how those rear tires looked afterwards?

Great to see the first serious non Stard car - hoping for lots of manufacturers nest season. (because they would bring more racing, investment and TV airtime)
Bakkerud is improving alright, shame he is too good for the current material.

This is still a STARD car somewhat, it's based on the R5 and I don't know what Citroen did since it's a collaboration. I'm pretty sure it has the STARD transmission though, since that was a kit that could be fitted in other cars as well.
