From some few opening ceremony videos/photos seems like Tanak and Evans no more with RedBull (no RB on Tanak's cap and Evans didn't have it at all(while others had)).

The prominent intakes of the Puma and the Hyundai can be blocked or removed. Blocking can be done joker-free, but if they are not removed the drag of these cars will increase, as air will find higher resistance to flow around the car. A joker is required to remove them, and jokers are very limited for 2025 (just 2 available for the chassis). Thus, Hyundai and M-Sport will have to decide between removing the side intakes (and spend a joker) or keeping them, giving them a new use, such as brake or transmission cooling.
"The Ford Puma Rally1 was deprived of the side intakes in the events it ran as non-hybrid in 2024 (Poland and Central European Rally). For 2025, the removal of the Ford Puma side intakes will also depend on the availability of jokers, just 2 for 2025, once they have already used the 2024 jokers."
So did they already use the 2024 jokers ?
Maybe Red Bull switched to more engaging drivers like Sesks to promote their brand.Quote:

He is already an Red Bull athlete for a couple of years.Quote:

That's nice but temperatures are too high during the days so it's going to melt until Sunday.Quote:

Indeed. One of the most idiotic systems of all. You force teams to be stuck with bad cars because it's illegal to fix them.Quote:

Again, I'm aware it's not the most important thing in the world but I truly hope we'll see a NEW livery for the i20 in Sweden for the rest of 2025, and I also can't stress it enough, it's depressing to see for a 6th(!) season running no fourth WRC team in the service park. Also, did they not mention in the regulations for this year that the service park itself would be smaller and they wouldn't have these huge facilaties for the cars?Quote:

Pajari livery. Looks a little bit better. I kinda liked his all white livery last year. And also Latvala's all red too. They could run many colors for each car different. Like there is so much different cars on the grid, that they need to look all the same.
With 80 million a year they shouldn't even say that 4th car isn't available because of budget. Just a stupid excuses. Why then M-Sport are even racing. They are not even close to that numbers.Quote:
