WRC control tyre supplyer
So for tyre we have basically had Michelin or Pirelli for many years, ever since FIA restricted teams to one brand.
DMack and MRT have tried to get the contract with FIA for the top class, but not succeeded.
Now we will get a new company, Hankook coming in.
Lets see how their testing towards next year will happen, and what the drivers feel about them.
Always cool with something new, even if I would like to have tyres from more than one manufacturer in all classes in WRC. At least for WRC2 and 3, where ryre manus could pay for cars ala DMack and MRT.
Will Hankook be a success, and maybe bring something new into the sport?
A great start to a rally for Neuville at last... and opening the road ! Still a long way to go go for him and the Hyundai until Saturday night points though.
