    Depends on Evans performance for rest of season. For sure he will say he is "very happy with driver line up" to the press, he isn't like Citroen management and won't want to unsettle his drivers, but Porter kept rattling on about Elfyn being given the hairdryer treatment during rally Portugal footage, so who knows.

    I think this was related to some incident where Evans damaged something on the car on one of the last ones in shakedown, not on his general performance. (not that his performance has been good so far)

    In this Spanish interview Sordo states again he is not pushing for a championship title anymore, doesn't see himself doing full seasons anymore, doesn't like Rally Finland. Maybe they could next year have him alternating with Huttunen on the faster events, assuming that one of the other drivers would go elsewhere?

    He constantly crash his R5. Maybe he is just not right for that car. Or the car isn't the right all along.

    Are you talking about Huttunen. In Sweden he got stuck in the ditch and in other events he had some spuns. He crashed Sweden PET, but I can't remember any crashes in Rallies yet with R5.

    My idea was just to have Huttunen on maybe Sweden and Finland, the events which Sordo doesn't like. I'd hope Tidemand to get a better program.

    I agree that Huttunen has been disappointing this year. The Hyundai isn't the best R5 car out there and quite often it has been a technical fault stopping him, but he's made mistakes at well. It's only his first 4WD season after all.
