McRae's move to Citroen - will this affect CMR 3?

I'm just wondering what the contractual situation is with CMR 3, now that
McRae has announced his move to Citroen next year. I understand that one of
the themes of CMR3 is a career mode involving a 3 year contract with Ford.

Surely the possibility of moving teams would have to have been planned for
during the development of this game. I wonder if it will come out with McRae
still driving the Ford, or with the Citroen (we know that the Citroen is one
of the licenced cars). Maybe it will be a bit like the updates for the F1
sims, with the game coming out with McRae driving for Ford (as he will for
the rest of this year), then with an update early next year to put him
behind the wheel of the Citroen.

I missed the formal announcement, is there a link where I can read about his
move? I knew he had been to the Citroen factory and liked the setup, but had
not heard he was definitely going yet...
