Colin Clark's twitter page states a French rally site is reporting the Neuville has visited Hyundai WRC HQ already this week.
Not surprising as the guy is the hottest property around. It isn't hard to imagine that he has 4 offers on the table - VW as Team 2 leader, M-Sport with Nasser's cash, Hyundai - it would have to be undisputed No 1 to tempt him there I'd think; and finally (probably the least attractive) Citroen.Quote:

I hope we don't add Neuville - Hyundai to that list.
VW said they will keep their three drivers for next year. Citroen are moving all their skilled engineers to the circuit project. Hyunday is a new team. Neuville will be the idiot of the century if he leave Ford.
+1!Quote:

If Qatar/Msport/neuville can give ogier/vw a real fight next year, it is very good for wrc's reputation.
Yes, the work is going on. Two third of the season fundig is basically covered. Plan is to use R5 car, manufacturer is not sure yet. Some of the sponsorship comes outside Estonia.Quote:
