I don't think the car they're testing is even the same MODEL of car that will be used for the Rally1 car....
I could be wrong, but I don't believe they'll use the i20....

They announced the i20 N Rally1 which makes sense, use rally to push the hot-hatch.
Of course they being WRC.com ;) that's definitely what I meant. https://www.wrc.com/en/news/2021/wrc...undai-in-2022/
I'm trying to get on to https://motorsport.hyundai.com but it's down. Wonder why that is? No worries, https://www.hyundai.news/eu/articles...r-line-up.html has NO mention of i20 N Rally1.
I'm not trying to have an argument with you, but do you seriously think that they've tested two iterations of an i20 N-based car, the latest being seen in public for the first time this weekend, only to throw it all in the bin with just under a month until the homologation deadline and build it into a completely different body style?
Adamo said they would be testing the 'new car' at the end of Nov, so this is it, the i20 that Tanak has been testing.
I think its confirmed..

Rich Millener (M-Sport) after the recent Puma Rally1 test:
“It was interesting for some of the guys who had been in the current [Fiesta WRC] car in Monza the week before – that offered them the chance to really feel how the two cars were working and the feedback on the Puma was very, very positive."
