I can't see Tänak returning to Hyundai. Maybe to Toyota, but likely it's another M-Sport year at most and that's it.

Interesting when you remember that RedGrey used to be Markko Märtin Motorsport, and now Märtin is completely gone.

LOL. Sebastien Loeb is polite at every single interview.

Interviews are a part of their job.

I would disagree. One example is "where did the puncture happen", meaning how long he had to go with that, and the answer was "what do you think, in the stage!".

I'm quite sure I've heard this story earlier.

There's Kremlin on his helmet.

Well, testing is just one day ;)

These contracts could be very complicated. Maybe a clause about the car performance level, or maybe something that if they fail to win the manu title, he is free to go (since the announcement came...

These points apply to Lappi as well.

I can only speak for myself, I have always been happy about his success.

And he didn't even win Estonia ;)

Mäkinen was also managered by Jouhki

Yeah but my point was that there might be not that much cleaning anyway, the first six cars could have equally slippery conditions

Last year in Acropolis Ogier barely lost anything during Friday while cleaning the road. Evans second on the road and Neuville third on the road both had issues on SS2 and SS3 so it's difficult to...

Also during these years Kankkunen lost the win of his home event every year for a technical fault, from the lead. At least Tänak managed to win Estonia in 2020.

Kankkunen 1988-1990. He went to Toyota and the car broke down at almost every event during 1988 and 1989. Then he went to Lancia which was outdated in 1990 and Toyota (which he had developed) was a...

Yeah I might have translated badly...difficult means a personality character, as in stubborn or not good at negotiating and co-operating.

Larger letters means higher volume, but I think Lampi said...

Lasse Lampi was interviewed by Kristian Sohlberg on his twitch channel

For background: In addition to his own...

Also good to remember that Toyota can test relatively unlimitedly on gravel in Jyväskylä and M-Sport in Greystoke (although that testing will not be that relevant to rallies like Acropolis and Kenya)

I clicked "like" because it was interesting to hear from Ott that the car is not so different, I knew it was an Adamoism saying that only the rims are the same.

However, I want to add the same as...

I think the leadership and atmosphere in the team was also one of the reasons why Lappi left the team for 2019...and now he came back after some changes in the leadership.

I remember reading that financially the Hyundai deal wasn't as good as Toyota...but these things we never know for sure. RedGrey is another thing though.

I want to believe him but I think he still attended some tests just before and/or after Monza?

To me it seems he was frustrated at two issues in Toyota
1) bad atmosphere in the team, especially the bosses
2) car breaking all the time

Maybe he saw developing Hyundai as a challenge that...

He was talking about using the title chance in 2018 yes, but he got the title in 2019. We know that he signed for Hyundai before Catalunya was finished, but the title was essentially in his pocket...
