WRC Testing

[mknight]

Thing is if this is "test only" then why the black "design" stripes near the grille?

Let's hope the final design is better.

Any info if Huttunen got any test at all?
(He did drive on tarmac a few weeks ago, but on very different roads)

I think Huttunen had a day of testing. I think last sunday. Spectating on Belgian tests was mostly forbidden however, so it's unlikely anyone has some footage from it.

Huttunen was testing in Belgium yesterday.

Apparently Hyundai stopped their PET before Acropolis after one day. Rumours about bringing wrong tyres.

what? tarmac ones instead of gravel?

Doesn't sound like a valid reason. By air freight (even a regular one) the tyres would be there easily within 24 hrs.

According to this website (https://www.motorone.gr/agones/12390...a-kai-hyundai/), the test had been interrupted last Thursday after two days (Tanak and Neuville) due to serious problems with the Pirelli tyres, and will resume next week with Sordo and the Rally2 car drivers.
