Hyundai must have had a WEC plan already long time and that´s why they selected racing men Abiteboul.
Still a couple of years in the WRC, because current Rally1 car will continue in 2024 and probably the regulations will be like this also 2025 & 2026, because the situation is difficult to know what could be the best way in the furure.

DF says that Abiteboul has an indication from Hyundai HQ to build the future.
So, I hope that this means they will stay in WRC.

The fun thing here, they are looking for a youngster for the future, 7 months ago they kicked one of the most talented ones because they wanted more experienced drivers.
Still they support Neuville, that has got every oppertunity for 10 years, how long will he last?

As long as he'll be one of the few drivers able to win a rally.
In these 10 years, how often was Hyundai a fast and reliable enough car to challenge for the championship? You always seem to be under the impression that Hyundai is tired of Neuville when most fans (and Hyundai themselves) know their car has let down their drivers way more often and it's actually surprising Neuville has put up with them for so long.
Even world champion Tanak wasn't able to be a proper title contender in his 3 years there.

Haha if you count Ogier in there as well one of the four quickest. But to put them all ahead of him in terms of speed is laughable, as is "2-3 drivers on the same level". Norwegian glasses I see. Check the second stage on the 2020 Monte or how many stages Tänak won vs Neuville in the same car.
