    Rally Finland crash has nothing to do with Ingrassias injury. Thats why he hasn't been in tests this season.

    Well Paddon said it himself when asked to rate his season from 0 to 10 he gave it - points.

    Also this article even paints more positive picture than reality:
    - in Sardinia he crashed twice, with second one on last stage before Power Stage especially unnecessary
    - in Poland he finished second only because all the drivers that were ahead either crashed out or had issues (Tanak, Latvala, Ogier)
    - similar in Australia being slowest of the Hyundais all rally except 1 stage

    The team (or some people in it) might like him as much as they want but in the end it's down to results if they don't come by the end of 2018 there might be some new candidates. But for 2018 I'd say he is safe to do those 7? rallies he now got promised.

    More clickbait from David Evans trying to create drama again? He's always inventing 'division with teams' and 'conflict between drivers' whether it exists or not.

    Still Hyundai can let him drive R5 at least for rest of rallies, just to get the experience... Maybe he can be a real challenger in WRC2 too and without mandatory events it's easier if he score points in both categories

    You really think he's invented anything in his column there?

    "Volkswagen is not expected to run a factory team with its new R5 car, but will provide customers with technical support." ...yeah, yeah, of course we believe them. (sarcasm alert) And that is the reason why Pontus Tidemand , most experienced young driver our of RC1 class was doing the test
