On the last point: Toyota was under it from the beginning, Hyundai was struggling or so it was said.Quote:

The minimum weight is 1180 kg under the checking conditions mentioned below (and with only one spare wheel).
The combined minimum weight of the car (under the checking conditions mentioned below and with only one spare wheel) and crew (driver + co-driver) is 1350 kg.
When two spare wheels are carried in the car, the second spare wheel must be removed before weighing.
Checking conditions
This is the real weight of the car, with neither driver nor co-driver nor their equipment.
The equipment comprising the following :
• Driver’s helmet + head restraining device
• Co-driver’s helmet + head restraining device.
At no time during the competition may a car weigh less than this minimum weight.
In case of a dispute during weighing, the full equipment of the driver and co-driver (see above) must be removed; this includes the helmet, but the headphones external to the helmet may be left in the car.
Ballast
The use of ballast is permitted in the cockpit in the conditions provided for under Art. 252-2.2 .
Ballast and its supports may be fitted in volume Vh (see Article 211).
