Fiat Chrysler's merger with PSA Group gives Detroit a CEO who takes risks in the boardroom and on the racetrack

He was focusing on several other challenges, including the return of the French automaker, after a quarter-century absence, to the U.S.

"I don't think the merger impacts that," said a senior PSA executive, asking not to be identified by name, due to the sensitivity of the subject.

But the PSA chief said at the time that he already had too much on his plate.

The announcement jolted the industry, coming barely five months after Fiat Chrysler saw a similarly structured marriage with PSA's French archrival Renault collapse at the 11th hour. (CNBC)
