[WRC] Rally Islas Canarias 2025

Well, for sure they gave feedback on how to fix some issues but seems nothing much changed. Do you think Cyril/the engineers ignored the feedback of the drivers because they thought the problem was elsewhere?

Cyril not even being there?

Maybe FX isn't what he used to be? Williams was not a success.......

I mean since the season and the tests started, not specifically in Canarias

Lancia finished in the first 5 at 1990 Portugal Rally at the end of the rally. Lancia and Toyota also have first 4 at rally finishes. Mercedes Benz 1st 4 at Ivory Coast 1979.

I would've said Lancia (Integrale) did it if any car did. But were they all in the same team in 1990 ? Nope.

Meanwhile WRC promoter tells us that this number and level of manufacturers is fine. Taking the piss

In Hyundai’s case, Demaison believes the i20 N Rally1 simply isn’t designed in a way that interacts well with the new tire – and that only fundamental design changes, not setup tweaks, can remedy the issue.

Demaison told DirtFish: “The conditions of this new tire highlights the fundamental issue we have with the car, which is not too difficult to solve, because we have been through this in the past. But we’ll need jokers and homologation to change a few things. We don’t have so many left, we’ll have to be careful.”

Sounds like old broken record.

Toyota 1-2-3-4-5
Hyundai 6-7-8
M-Sport 9-10

That is... stark.

It's good that I'm mainly interested in the drivers and don't pay much attention to the manufacturer's championship.

Right now, at 7 o'clock this morning, I'd rather have a single-car format to bring a couple more drivers into the podium contest and make a fight of it.

Don’t forget that Hyunday‘s car was mainly designed by Christian Loriaux…

Yep and FX said already last year in one of the dirtfish articles that the car is fundamentally wrong and basically a new one is needed to cure all of the problems.
