This guy says Lindholm to Hyundai to compete with Rally1. https://twitter.com/rallyspynews/sta...98470934609920

But where could be the logic behind this? It must be really long-term vision and hope then. And on the other hand, it would be really hard to swallow to guys like Suninen and Mikkelsen.
with one of those tweets knowing that Tänak is testing the Puma two weeks before contract was published. Also the guess about Hyundai lineup seems to match what other people "knew" at the time and what Mikkelsen has mentioned later.Quote:

That's about the only point going for it though. (Lindholm being "new" with unknown future potential).
Everything else seems wrong. He got the title last year due to lots of luck and so far this year he doesn't confirm he has speed or reliability to defend it vs tougher competition.
Even Solberg did multiple rallies in WRC car before getting nominated for points. Putting Lindholm right for point scoring mid season is as big or bigger risk for both sides.

WRC All Live has a case to answer too. Watching every stage means means many will have no big drama.
Before WRC+ we followed times or listened to rally radio while doing other things and then watched the best bits later on a highlights show. This gave an impression that events were constantly exciting when of course they really weren't.
But WRC+ have to live up to that fact. Now they are clipping driver who enters a corner just to show 10 secs of wheelspinning at start... Some changes needed...Quote:
