Craig Breen and #scottmartin finished fifth in their Citroën #c3wrc, meeting the target set for them at this year's #rally Sweden. Meanwhile, Kris Meeke and Paul Nagle put their first points on the board in finishing fourth in the Power Stage, whilst also ensuring both Citroën Total Abu Dhabi WRT cars scored points in the Manufacturers' championship. Last but not least, Stéphane Lefebvre and Gabin Moreau concluded a promising weekend in eighth place.
- The final leg of #rally Sweden resembled something of a sprint finish, with three stages covering less than 60km. After two runs on Likenäs, the #event concluded with Torsby 2, also serving as the Power Stage.
- After dragging themselves into the top 5 on day two, #craigbreen and Scott Martin's aim was to hold onto this position. They set about the job in hand by adopting a balanced approach, between going for speed and avoiding taking risks.
- At the end of the Power Stage, #craigbreen could take some satisfaction from meeting the target set for him by the team before the start. Thanks to two fifth-place finishes in Monte-Carlo and here in Sweden, the Irishman stays in the same position in the Drivers' World Championship.
- Out of the top 10 in the overall standings, Kris Meeke was aiming to end the #rally on a high and finish in the top five on the Power Stage. The Northern Irishman showed his turn of speed to finish fourth, which saw him score his first points of the season. And by making it to the end of #rally Sweden, Kris Meeke and Paul Nagle ensured both of the Citroën Total Abu Dhabi WRT's C3 WRCs scored points for the Manufacturers' standings.
- Meanwhile, Stéphane Lefebvre and Gabin Moreau ended a solid weekend in eighth position overall. Despite a bit of a moment at the start of SS16, the young Frenchmen were all smiles at the finish. In a previous generation car, Stéphane Lefebvre gathered some useful experience in only his second appearance at #rally Sweden.
- At #rally Mexico (9-12 March), Citroën Total Abu Dhabi WRT will be entering two C3 WRCs for Kris Meeke/Paul Nagle and Stéphane Lefebvre/Gabin Moreau.
