Actually if you compare with Corsica it was. The 1-2-3 comment is a little bit like saying Hyundai was fastest car in Corsica cause Neuville won.
Neuville had same speed as Tänak and faster than both other Toyotas, Sordo was also faster than both other Toyotas unlike Corsica and Ogier was about same speed as Latvala/Meeke before puncture. Ford lacked a top tarmac driver but stagetimes Suninen did were also very good compared with Toyotas.
The question still remains as to what changes need to be done for Turkey. From the Germany talk from Toyota it seems that they were actually forced to follow the "correct" overhang even here.
Btw. the comments from Toyota vs Citroen should come as no surprise to anyone. Off course Toyota will claim how it's all nonsense and pointless change, while Citroen will claim it was a massive advantage. Truth is likely somewhere between.

exactly, i would say that the Hyunday was maybe the best overall car at Rally Germany. At least there wasnt nothing to choose between them and Toyota

"For Germany, we have the same assembly on the car, the aerodynamic profile is the same that it has always been, but in order to meet tolerance in clarifications there has been positional adjustments in order to meet the tolerance."

Hard to agree Est. Tanak lead from SS1 to the finish; Neuville was always close and won the PS but all Yaris drivers managed to win stages (11 against 8 i20 wins) while Mikkelsen struggled with his car set-up all event long. The Yaris was also more reliable, with only those PS brake issues for Tanak against Sordo’s gearbox failure at the end of leg 2 (plus Neuville fuse issue after a stall). All considered, the Yaris was, as usual, the best car.
