    Well, question will be who didn’t make an OFF (or had an issue) during this PET

    Route was the half the same from Tanaks.
    Tanak and Neuville were not in good mood.No happy faces.
    Didnt saw Katsuta at enough runs,but at Tanaks and Neuvilles pet,didnt like the rear of the car.
    Nothing new of course as we have read drivers comments from plenty rallies about it.
    Interesting that there is no photos of Katsuta's car..

    But about Hyundai.. sounds bad

    Some drivers have different testing rhythms.
    For Neuville one pass is enough before changing settings. It was the same when I was at his test in 2020. If they change things like diffs or dampers, it takes time. And lunch could be in your time window.

    But then again, this year, Hyundai’s Finland tests with Neuville and especially Tänak were slowed down by technical problems…

    Rally Greece will be hardest test this year. If Hyundai rear will be good or not probably means nothing. The driver who wins is the one with least problems...
