It's just a bad headline by Dirtfish.

But if the conditions were suitable for rallying, you can bet your life Hyundai would've been running the car in Finland as a development test. Don't see why Toyota wouldn't have as well. And these tests would've been on top of the rally Portugal set-up tests.

For sure. And like we know Hyundai is a bit behind in testing days, especially on gravel, and are looking forward to homologating new parts so they would desperately need these roads soon.

Exactly.

You dont rely just on a PET to test and develop a car as each driver needs his day just for set-up and his own practice. Hyundai especially need testing on gravel as they've done little and prioritized tarmac testing for Monte and Croatia at the start of the season.
