No I mean being smart and choosing your battles. Ogier and Loeb had plenty rallies they accepted to finish on the podium when they couldn't win. I think Neuville realizes both he and the car and his road position means he does not have the best chance here, plus it's a difficult rally where mistakes are costly. So he is playing the long game on this one, no shame in that.

"Slippery now, but not too dramatic. I have to be very focused all the time. I know I need to fight with Esapekka, but I'm in a difficult [road] position here. I know the grip will improve for him."
They say that rallying is not popular, but tickets for stage 1 are sold out: https://www.fiaerc.com/a/news/w27801_ERC-all-set-to-rock-sell-out-arena-crowd
