[WRC] FORUM8 Rally Japan 2025

[Fast Eddie WRC]

Hyundai Motorsport WRC Sporting Director Andrew Wheatley:

“Today was another positive day for us as we take another step forward in our development process. We have started to see some excellent progress from Adrien to make up 0.6 seconds to the rally leader across the day, which marks huge progress for us with the evo car. Ott has demonstrated a very professional drive as he’s managed the performance of the old specification car over some very challenging stages, and we expect him to return tomorrow with the performance we know he’s capable of."

Why he sounds like Ott's staying

[deephouse]

As much as we don't like Hyundai's team running and their terrible condition in WRC, we at least need to be happy they are still here, at least for as long as someone new comes. Someone who can challenge Toyota properly. Even they need some kind of challenge which I think Hyundai can't provide anymore.

where is that no commentary option

Bottom right part of the screen, next to the settings icon, there is a squiggly line like an audio waveform. Click on that and choose "international feed" for the language.

It's raining in Japan already. It's gonna be anyone's game.

Elfyn Evans will become 2025 world champion today, mark my words.

Do not tempt fate.

Out of the three it's probably only Kalle really going for the Sunday points. Seb somewhat, Elfyn not so.

Why? Both Ogier and Evans need that win. Ogier almost must win I would say, or the championship deficit will be over 20 points, which would be unecessary much
