ERC points system is very complex. Maybe they have problem with maths?

[Jarek Z]

Not a spectacular debut of the new Hyundai i20 N Rally2 in ERC. Martin Vlcek was only 12th overall, 8 minutes behind the winner.

Never heard of the guy, is he good?

It depends a lot of the driver.

I think he's not the best driver to judge car performance

He is the boss or KOWAX racing (Huttunens team the last few years).

I'd say he was about as fast as one would expect him with the old i20.

He used to be somewhat more competitive few years back but since his heavy injury from Barum 2019 crash he seems to drive slower.

KOWAX boss says in an interview from Barum that the new I20 has about 16hp less than the old one, but it's much easier to drive.

Why does it take organizers so long to update point standing after Rallys?
are there times for protests and so on that prevent them to update?

Anyway, they could call them provisional or unofficial until all is ok with the formalities.

If you are talking about ERC standings after Barum, I was on podium till the night and then moved to afterparty. After all other ERC rallies standings is updated in the night after finish of race.

If someone wants to have a closer look at the new Hyundai, 10 photos of Crugnola's car can be seen below:

Speedwise Crugnola seems pretty much exactly as fast with new car as with the old.

Then again smooth Italian tarmac was basically the best surface for the old car.
