If Neuville really doesn't know if the 2017 Hyundai is already running, that is the best proof he's gone leave Hyundai. But maybe he just can't tell...

#AskPaddon How about the clearly faster 2017 cars & safety? Will it not be over the edge? Keeping in mind what happened last Saturday.

The speed diff won't be so big that it causes concerns for safety. The cars are built strong and FIA pushing hard
@HaydenPaddon #askpaddon Scary moment for you & bad crash for @SLefebvreRallye. #WRC2017 cars are even faster! Are you worried? @OfficialWRC

Not at all. As drivers we understand the risks involved and personally the cars are not fast enough. More bhp = ����
Interestingly, Paddon has just tweeted that the seats make it difficult to put the cameras in the same place in the middle as it was in the past.Quote:

On WRC+ there are several cars that now have this. It's more difficult now with the seats but I agree is betterHayden Paddon added,
Jordi @jordi_casale
@HaydenPaddon is it posible to put the con board cameras in the middle of the car? Like before... Will be much better for all
I find it hard to believe that in 2016 engineering cannot solve trivial problems like those Paddon mentions.
Edit:
My bad, the article was from last year.
Problem is with FIA. After problem with camera of Bertelli last year (I think it was last year) they started to push to the crews in WRC and ERC to put cameras out of some places... From my point of view - another stupid decision from FIA.Quote:

M-Sport team boss Malcolm Wilson has confirmed Elfyn Evans will return to the WRC before the end of this season.
Evans said last month after Rally Finland that he had no more scheduled events in the World Rally Championship, but on the back of his success in the British Rally Championship, the Welshman secured the title on the Ulster Rally last weekend after winning, Wilson has revealed the 27-year-old will run again at the top level - albeit in WRC2.
Evans still has a chance of winning this year's WRC2 title, although Teemu Suinen is only two points behind, and Esapekka Lappi has also closed - the gap down to 13 points - after winning last weekend's Rally Deutschland. Suinen and Lappi also both have two points' scoring events left, to Evans' one.
“They'll [Evans and co-driver Craig Parry] be back in the World Rally Championship before the end of the season," Wilson confirmed.
“We just need to assess the events and determine which will give them the best shot of securing another championship this year.”
Meanwhile, Evans said he was delighted to have secured the British Rally Championship title with one event remaining.
“It feels really good to win the BRC title in style but it was a difficult event and hard to concentrate on the job in hand. The rally was really tough, probably the hardest of the season with the weather changing all the time. To win the rally and the championship is very special, especially as it was 20 years since my father was champion,” he added.

Evans is not good enough, but still better investment than Ostberg.

they can fill f1 cars with camera's, but in a much more spacious car they can't find a spot to place a camera, thats just bullshit.
