Of course, but we are looking at the legs of Ott at the moment. Greg LeMond the Second.
Been doing cycling in the past myself and I know, what does it take to get muscles like this on legs. Thousands of kilometers annually.

Or some good squats, and other weightlifting stuff.

In todays interview to Estonian media, Tänak said that there was no development from M-sport during the season, that was the main reason for leaving. And also said that the problems that Hyundai had in 2022 (for him) are solved and the management sees the car development same direction as he is.
Dunno about that, if Neu has different driving style, it cannot suite for both of them. One has to struggle more or both will struggle with driveability like in 2022.

"It has been finally understood in Hyundai that with the problems and shortcomings that in my eyes Hyundai had in the previous years, no big fish will be caught. Necessary steps have been taken to make the team structurally stronger. They have proven to me that they are willing to really work hard for the titles, and since our visions finally are the same, it seemed that we can do things together," said Tänak in an interview with Delfi.

According to Tänak, he also had negotiations with the owner of M-Sport, Malcolm Wilson, but it did not come to fruition. "We both had an understanding that it would not be possible to pursue my goal together in the near future. Toyota has a strong enough team and there were no other options, because today the series is small enough."

Tänak added that M-Sport's financial capacity was so low this year that it was not possible to develop the car further during the season. "We have not succeeded in creating technical progress. At the beginning of the year we homologated new differentials, but since then there have been no updates and as far as I know nothing is coming. That was one of the reasons why it [the new contract] seemed difficult to me. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get this car working for me either. It has been a difficult year."

last sentence, so no development and no tied to his driving style and he won 2 races. let's hope he can have a better chance at hyundai and give a great competition vs Kalle

M-Sport's lack of budget this year is probably the reason why they had to spend what they had developing the Fiesta Rally2. This is a car they can actually sell, unlike the Puma.
