How do you expect your rivals to perform next year?
CA:
Obviously [Citroen’s] Sebastien [Loeb] is going to be the guy to beat and we are looking - Petter and myself, both to be up there competing for wins and podiums. But whether we can do that straight away we will have to wait and see. Mikko [Hirvonen] looks like he is coming on really well [at the
BP Ford WRT] and he is doing some really top rallies. It would be good to see him fighting with Sebastien. We don’t want to see Sebastian walk away with it. We want to see some action. We want to hopefully have three or four drivers fighting for rally wins. That would be the best thing and it makes it fun for us as drivers as well.

What are your plans for Christmas and the New Year?
CA:
I am in Australia for a couple of weeks. We don’t get that long a break. We will head back the first few days in January and then kick off testing. Basically just training - it has been a pretty hectic couple of months with the lead up of rallies and it was fairly non-stop there. Now it is time to get fit again and get back on track and just re-energise the body and get ready to hit it.
