Hyundai WRT

[Grundo Farb]

From a sporting point of wiew, Mikkelsen do the only right thing. Everyone knows that he can challenge neuville for a WDC if the stuff work properly.
If he have a bad season again, he's probably looking for an other team next year anyway.

What happens in Hyundai these days, we'll never now, but someone in the leaderboard whants some payback from the investments, thats for sure.

I really don't belive in neuville to be the right one to be the No.1 in the team, two years in the row he has litterally missed the open goal. One thing is if he hasn't bragged about in front, but when he says that he has 80% WDC in his pocket, and both times don't deliver, he litterally shit on his own legs.

A colourful image!

I don't think Mikkelsen can challenge anyone for WDC so not quite everyone thinks that. I do totally agree with you about Neuville, he isn't as good as he thinks he is.

Either way, they way their leadership has behaved (not celebrating Paddons 2nd in Australia) and subsequent u-turn on signing him means I definitely won't be supporting them this year and hope they fail dismally.

Go Ott!

I most definitely don't know that.

Neuville has been 2nd in the WRC 4 times. Mikkelsen got 3th in WRC at highest, and that with the fastest car at that moment (no doubt about that).
Mikkelsen has never challenged Ogier for the title.

Interesting contract Hyundai has made in that case. Especially when you look how other two drivers with a full season contract were treated.

I guess Even Management has better lawyers. 100% covered contract is the good result for him, making him able to act like this to Hyundai management.

No-one's saying he's a useless driver. The point was that he's unlikely to challenge Neuville or anyone else for the WDC title. Geez, when did it become so black and white that either you're the champ or a useless driver?

Mikkelsen came into the team pushing two contracted drivers into half seasons. He knew the team does that and made sure it won’t happen to him as well

Lawyers or no lawyers, in the end IT looks to me Mikkelsen did have a very good contract. Good for him.

What interesst me The most after Loebs arrival is what he can influence and do with The cars setup and future upgrades. With a car better suited to all drivers especially paddon and Mikkelsen they would have fought for more podiums. Probably we would not had this discussion. On paper neuville, Mikkelsen and Paddon should have been a super team based on what they have shown earlier years.
