    And I would guess that in the eyes of Hyundai HQ, Adamo, after having delivered the long overdue title to the team, has all the power to do whatever he wants regarding the drivers. I'm quite sure we will see some unpopular driver decisions at Hyundai also in 2020.

    I don't think Hyundai HQ ever had anything to say when it comes to picking drivers.

    Anyway one thing is entirely logical decisions like dropping Mikkelsen for Corsica because of his tarmac issues in i20 and Loeb's tarmac history in other cars

    But things like picking Breen over Paddon for Finland and dropping Mikkelsen for Australia seem less than logical on many levels.

    He says himself he either trusts a driver or he doesn`t... sometimes contrary to results.

    Not directly ofcourse. But Adamo's position in the team at the moment is so strong (due to aforementioned reason) that he can pretty much do whatever he wants. Exaggerating: he probably could bench Neuville if that was the case and the HQ would not intervene. I guess mr. Nandan never had such authority.

    Jourdan Serderidis is said on FB that his program of 2020 includes WRC Kenya round. I wonder which car he would pick?

    I don't really care about Serderidis, he could drive whatever he wants but still be behind jwrc cars figuratively speaking
