There's not so much worth looking at on that Hyundai show car. Certainly nothing can be learned about the packaging or chassis design, and probably not very much about the aero either. While M-Sport and Toyota's cars were getting plenty of close attention in Salzburg, the i20 was... not. Whether by mistake or through careful planning, they've at least kept their cards up their sleeve for another couple of days.

Yeah I doubt anyone will use jokers based on how other cars look like.
Unless there are major issues I don't expect many jokers before april. (with the possible exception of Hyundai).
In the meantime there will be tons of opportunities for detailed pictures of every part of the cars from the outside and trough windows.

No, true, but there's plenty that can be done slightly differently even on a homologated car, even details as fine as the orientation and positioning of the spare wheels can have an influence. Also, just keeping the other teams guessing for another couple of days is worth something, even if it's just to annoy them

i.e. Puma showed small bits that didn't have in the test car
A shame it seems there will be no Penmachno.....And if they want a proper sting in the tail, how about linking Alwen & Brenig, as seen on RallyGB in 2018? Might need a road closure, which is why it...
