[WRC] Rallye Monte Carlo 2022
TypeR, Antti just explained the lack of parts thing
Tänak mentioned it already during that long interview last week
It’s not that manufactures are super men and they get only the parts and others not#8 Ott Tänak - Martin Järveoja #8

I know the lack of parts thing in the world.
And I also said that building so few cars by such a manufacturer can't/shouldn't be a problem.

They kinda are. They have huge budgets, connections and especially leverage.
For example, the lack of chips should be a problem if you need a million of them cheaply, not if you need a few dozens.
Everything is still available if you need only small quantities, just harder and more expensive to come by.

Also it makes a difference if you can wait for a month or two for something to be shipped from the other side of the world

I think Hyundai have been in crysis mode since they started developing the car too late and what we see comes from that. Still it's not horribly slow so far. If they can get it sorted by Portugal not all is lost.

I just want that they could do at least some stages today without problems to see what speed they have

Tanak made a horrible decision leaving Toyota when on top, but having had a bad two years at Hyundai and then signing a new multi year contract on the back of that, could arguably prove to be an even bigger mistake....
Let's hope for Tanak and Neuville that Hyundai can recover this situation and it's just a case of increasing the development - through more parts being available/ designed and hopefully lots of appearances at local rallies to ramp up the testing.
Let's hope they can have some trouble free stages today and show a bit more pace.
