Unlike in WRC2, I suspect if Hyundai doesn't enter as a manufacturer ('constructor') then their cars may not be eligible for whatever the 'top class' is called when they merge WRC27 and Rally2.....

Hope they go. It's quite frankly embarrassing for a manufacturer, that is for years now in the top class, to not turn up in a car with the latest regulations next year. WRC needs full commitment...
