If I remember well Citroen isn't interested in the Middle-East events.
China is an important market for Citroen.
I can imagine they also want to race in South-America and Marocco (or elsewhere in Africa).

No problems with this calendar, except for the fact the first half of the season is only in Europe and the second half only outside Europe. I would like to see a mix.
