i am almost sure that thats performance is under Adamo orders.
Neuville worst stage at Corsica was stage 4 where he lost 6,5 sec at 17,6 stage kms.This stage was the worst for all hyundais
take a look at Sordo and Loeb too

Sordo with brake problems midstage while he is slow at 1st split.
After midstage with the brake problem lost less than from stage start(strange brake problem)

and Neuvilles comment that car is good but it moves a lot.
How is it good when moves a lot?
Also if you take a look Hyundai with this result is leading manufacture points,and seems that this is the target at all costs.

It was quite a big battle this weekend. What was the feeling when Thierry won?
AA:
Honestly, I was ready to accept the defeat. I’m very clear with myself, the team and the car performance. I couldn’t ask Thierry and Nicolas for miracles because they already exceeded the physical limits. I was pretty ready to accept the second place. It would have given us the lead in the Manufacturers’ FIA World Rally Championship. I’m happy but I’m realistic. Meeke’s puncture helped us to gain a place.

"Q:
Andrea Adamo, yesterday you felt that Thierry was the one leading the rally and not the team. How do you feel now?
AA:
I cannot say that I’m not happy but without the punctures, we wouldn’t have won. We have to recognise that the team wasn’t at its best this weekend. I don’t think we won as Hyundai. Thierry won, Hyundai didn’t."
--------------
Sounds like it's aimed both on the car and Sordo +Loeb.

Q:
How confident are you moving forward to Argentina?
AA:
I’m realistic: we have to be more competitive. We have two crews well-placed in the starting order. I hope we won’t have any crashes in Argentina. We lost an opportunity in Mexico. We have to focus on being more competitive.
--------
This is clearly aimed at both Mikkelsen (Mexico) but also Loeb here.

Fun chap to work with I guess

look how Neuville takes that corner at 1:45, compared to Ogier in the beginning of the video, Tänak at 2:25 and Evans at 2:55. Amazing late braking by Ciamin at 3:05, i was sure he was going straight

Huge differences indeed! Good video, thanks for posting!

Pity with Meeke, Latvala & Tanak all changing wheels due to punctures we couidnt get to see the way the wheels were damaged...

And Evans puncture was so strange damaging the tyre just going over a bit of rough road. I have driven over some awful roads at speed over many years and never once got a wheel or tyre damaged.
