CITROËN CELEBRATES Triple 2016 FIA WTCC

A day after securing its third consecutive FIA World Touring Car Championship title, Citroën shone in the races at the Shanghai circuit, with José María López, Yvan Muller and Mehdi Bennani giving the C-Elysée WTCC its first one-two-three finish of the season.

Yvan Muller‘s two podium spots mean he now stands alone in second place in the Drivers’ World Championship, with a healthy lead over his rivals. Mehdi Bennani, meanwhile, has sewn up the WTCC Trophy, the competition for independent drivers.
