I have been chating with Thierry now and he told me that he won't leave next year in ANY case.

It needed clarifying as the selective quotes chosen by Rally Journal were misleading...

It's also a bit worrying re Hyundai and Neuville obviously has doubts about their continuation with the new Regs.

I know this is less about the rally itself, but I do hope Hyundai does something special for their livery in Croatia like last year; After all it will be a year since, and I sincerely hope they do something more than 'for Craig' in Croatia.
Only you know your true potential.
This year we rally #ForCraig

Do you guys think after this Rally (Kenya for future reference), & Cyril's statement there's a real threat we won't see Hyundai Motorsport after this season?

I think there is a high chance based on Cyril interviews to dirtfish and autohebdo.

I think his heart belong to formula. He constantly compare those two sports. Man, I hope he does not pushing out of the sport. Those words about competive car is such dumb. All three manus are on the same page right now and will be even in june, when rules will be on paper. No one will get the advantage. So they will all get same amount of time for preparing their machines. Their decision of staying could also be a factor if they win at least driver championship. It's necessary I think. If both, even better. Hyundai did rise their sale numbers because of the sport, even if they are not winning or dominate. Toyota don't need to rise it because they were already at the top before they came in it. Their boss just like rallying and it's their herritage. Hyundai's decision of ending their N-line of ICE cars is such a stupid move and they will regret it. Some brands are bringing ICE engines back, because they realize EV will never replace that technology.
What I don't get it is why all three were so against hybrid few weeks ago, now when they will remove it from cars, are all against it. Why? Just why?

Not for me, I think there is possibility the manufacturers championship returns to a makes championships and Hyundai will be represented by customers in Rally2/+. Can't have Toyota as the only serious entrant vs M-Sport, even if the results look like it.
I was already saying for some time that Hyundai global are pulling out, but there won't be an announcement mid-season. They don't need to play any PR games, it's clear to every man and his dog that most of the automotive market is moving away from what motorsport offers.
