The obvious problem Hyundai have is you just can't replace Tanak. They'll be panicking and if we are being honest, have already lost next year's manufacturer title.
I think they'll have to rotate 3 or 4drivers for 2cars to help with road position. Mikkelsen has already shown for 5/6yrs at championship winning teams he can't compete with tier 1 drivers even with better road positions. Even the likes of a mentally broken Latvala(polo) and Sordo(i20) won more rallies in same cars as Andreas.
Mikkelsen should be signed as he's going to be top5ish and maybe better where there's retirements. Sordo 8 events max or he loses his road position advantage which he needs. Maybe they could throw wild cards like Suninen and Meeke in on certain gravel events? Meeke in Mexico /Portugal and Finland for example. Suninen in Sweden, Estonia, Finland etc. Events where they both go well and could have great road positions.
It's not just the manufacturers that's a worry, Mikkelsen and Sordo of this year on their own won't be able to help Thierry in the drivers and take pts away from the Toyota drivers (and Tanak if he ends up anywhere)Last edited by er88; 29th October 2022 at 12:01.
