to me Monte entries look simple, same WRC2 for every driver + support category for some.

I don´t care who has entered the crew or which team has rented that car.
WRC2 is THE thing and others are just sub categories inside WRC2.
Last year was way more complicated!"quattro best 4wd rallycar ever"

It also looks like Hyundai could be Østbergs next project.
No cars entered by a factory bound team
According to the solbergs the Rally2 car is far from finished, and is not easy to drive.

I'd say that quote is more of a case of self-defence, than an objective assessment of the car's capabilities... if indeed Oliver has even said that.
I wonder if that would be the feedback, if he'd managed to win WRC2 / RC2 on an event in an i20 N Rally2, rather than 3 DNFs?

Suninen said the same about new Hyundai Rally2. I've translated his Finnish quotes somewhere, but if I remember it was mostly the handling that was awkward, going from understeer to oversteer too surprisingly. Hopefully something that can be rectified by dampers and setup, because there's not a lot that can be changed with the sparse homologation jokers.

It appears that no one wants to drive WRC2 for M-Sport

They developed Rally3 and Rally4 before end of the year. Why they didn’t improve Rally2 car too? It is notorious that need some improvement.

Not a surprise, investing in a Rally2 M-Sport is probably the worst choice today from a strictly competitive point of view. IMO, M-Sport should have found a deal WRC championship + some Rally1 drives for Ostberg or Mikkelsen to help developing the car.
Should be a difficult year for them again in WRC-2; let’s hope Huttunen and Cais can deliver some good drives.
