    That's what made the VW team so good, from what i heard they all ran similar setups with Ogier usually just a little higher and most of the time they only had to change the high speed

    What about Penasse? As team manager since day one, for sure he’s also responsible for some of the Hyundai troubles, especialy concerning drivers choices (like signing Mikkelesen or missing to hire Ogier). Btw, fingers crossed for Adamo.

    If they don't want Ogier behind the wheel why still making it like that is mistake? Mikkelsen was free at that time. Both Sordo and Paddon had many troubles in 2017 and with Mikkelsen's pace he showed to the world in a Skoda, Citroen and Hyundai that time was a brilliant choice. I don't know what then went down with him in 2018. But one thing everytime driver needs to prove they drive brilliantly and when they get a long term deal they fall back. And they said it publicily if Mikkelsen will be bad at Monte they will reconsider his season. So everypone is still open, even Paddon could still be in the game. Remember in the 3/4 of 2017 they announce they will take Mikk in the team and then Padd and Sor will share a car. So nothing is for sure right there at their team. Even Neuville could become driver number two if Loeb will win few races (I'm sure he will be hungry for another title if he will have a chance).

    And how about good old Grönholm then? He could grab his third title if he drives and wins in Sweden and then decides to do the rest of the season!

    Stop being so obsessed with Gronholm and his participating. If he would be in Sweden we would already know.

    I obviously failed with my previous message.

    Who knows, it could be called "marketing", at the moment all eyes are elsewhere...
