Doesn't seem like a great time if you're only 8 seconds faster than the Dakar Truck on some gravel stage in France ;)

watched a few of the above clips of the ford wrc
does it sound like its bogging down (slightly hesitating) on initial launch sometimes?
yes at some occasions it was hesitating.
Is it just me or does the car seem on the soft side?
It seems to squat a lot under acceleration. This could be down to geometry/squat/anti-squat, but also springs and or low speed compression in the rear? Or heavy rebound in the front?
This gives the car a very clear rake, with the front high up in the air, for a long time after initial acceleration, wich is the exact opposite of what You want in regards to aerodynamics?
The car has also a pronounced roll from side to side, that for me at least look a little bit excessive.
But i am guessing that this is a "Germany-special" set up, and not the same as to be used in the Tour de Course?
Either way I am impressed by Paddon on tarmac. He seems to have good precision.

The new one looks and sounds a lot more aggressive.
Since yesterday, Hyundai is testing in Finnish forests with two units of the Hyundai i20 WRC. The first one, the current aims pilots put up the car ahead of rallies such as Poland and Finland , very fast and narrow where the work of the suspensions is key. The other is the unit of 2016 , already tested a few weeks ago and Kevin Abbring Dani Sordo on asphalt , and Thierry Neuville and Hayden Paddon are by testing in the same sections as the one currently used in the WRC.
The intention is obviously to compare both units times during these trials to be held Monday through Thursday and whether steps are being taken on the computer are correct. According to point from Germany, the car is already half a second per kilometer faster than at present and is still only 50% of its development before it makes its final debut at the upcoming Rallye Monte-Carlo in 2016.

Half a second per km? That would be nutts.
must be faster from polo http://www.petrolheads.gr/images/smi...ooth/crazy.gif
If it was really half a second faster it would be in the field now and they would not have delayed its debut in 2016. Yes, it's not only a matter of speed but...
According to their own data they sold 67917 new generation i20 in 2014 but of that number only 22782 was global model (the rest is Indian model which I don't know how much is diferent). Anyway even with the global model they must have reached the 25000 number in early January. Of course these are sale numbers, not production numbers.
The new i20 looks so much more powerful than the older one.
