When did that happen last time in WRC level ??

Could it be that it was over 20 years ago?
I found that Rudolf Stohl drove Audi Coupe S2 in Safari Rally 1998:

and then Lecerf Gaël drove similar car in Rally New Zealand 1998:

Is Coupe S2 the last Audi in WRC?

1994 is probably the last year when an Audi driver managed to score points in WRC, thanks to Austrian drivers Rudolf Stohl and Raphael Sperrer:

Now everything is in the hands of Enrico Windisch. Can he change it? He is Austrian too, so... ;)
It is a car with badge Audi, not one Audi.
Well Turkey was kind of understandable since the car was never good on very rough gravel. But Croatia that seems relatively smooth tarmac (compared to Baumholder at least) is a bit surprising.
Especially Solberg missing completely. Why not even outside WRC2 like in Monte?
Does he stuggle/not like the current R5 so much? (guess we'll see a bit this weekend)
Or they don't believe in it and correspondingly have so much faith in the new one?
i20 R5 has been very popular lately but in Croatia Rally it´s replaced by Fiesta Rally2/R5 which usually is unpopular.
Just checked the road book. Never seen so many cut protections...huge disappointment from spectator point of view.
