Mikkelsen (-3 rallies) and Sordo (-5 rallies) didn't do even the full program and one was ahead of JML and Meeke while Sordo was only 9 pts behind 2nd best Toyota. Sordo even did manage to snatch a win while other Toyota's were nowhere near a win. Should I go on...
While I admit Hyundai seem to be more difficult to set up you paint a very dark picture which is not backed up by stats.

Sorry but even after 35 years of racing and rally I still have a hard time seeing differences of 0,01% in speed... Maybe it's my advanced age. Maybe its something else but the differences between the cars and drivers do amount to fractions of 1% and that is hard to look at and see. Maybe I need better glasses???

1. More WRC cars on the stages (overall) than last season.
2. Both Suninen and Lappi fight for wins in several events.
3. Sordo to win another event.
4. Safari Rally becomes a complete failure, remembering us why this country lost it's place in WRC.
5. 3-way fight for the title until the penultimate event.

1. Ogier will be champion.
2. No one outside of Ogier, Tanak & Neuville will break into the top 3.
3. Evans will be the only other rally winner outside championship’s the top 3.
4. Rovanpera’s position in the Toyota team will be questioned by the media in the first half of the season due to poor results/crashes. Podium finishes in the second half of the season will see him then hailed as the best thing since sliced bread.
5. Meeke will develop the R5/Rally2 Yaris for Toyota/TMR but will only drive it twice in the WRC - at Wales Rally GB and Rally Japan after winning the British Rally Championship in a Toyota GB supported Yaris in R4 kit/Rally2 kit form, though the R5/Rally2 will be homologated in time for the final round in September.

It's OK, it's a short stage! Remember the FIA and promoter reserve the right to completely fuck over everything we all know, enjoy and understand about this series and sport. Or, maybe they might...
