    "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger" should be the motto of Abbring's Sweden 2015 drive. I think he'll be cautious and slow, but I don't care since this is his chance to gain a lot of experience on snow.

    I hope he´ll do good, but having in mind all critical guys on this forum, there´s no room for being slow or going off...

    Hyundai Motorsport announces Dani Sordo will miss Rally Sweden through injury: Hyundai Motorsport driver Dani ... http://bit.ly/1Kjpdvt

    The Spaniard, who expanded his role with the team to compete in at least 10 rallies this year, sustained injuries when he fell off his mountain bike during training in Spain.

    Sordo was diagnosed with two broken ribs and will therefore miss the next round of the WRC in Sweden.

    Hayden Paddon will replace him in the event and Sordo is expected to return to action in Rally Mexico.

    "First of all we would like to send our best wishes to Dani for a quick recovery and we look forward to seeing him back in the car," said team boss Michel Nandan.

    "We have decided that it's best for Dani to miss Sweden in order for him to recover and to be 100% fit for Rally Mexico next month."

    I hope he will be good as well, and if he will be slow I won't say he is shit. I just wanted to say that it is not the best FOR HIM to make his debut in a surface he doesnt know with a car he doesnt know. Dont know where is the problem..

    Too big shoes for Paddon to drive Manufacturer Championship car #8 and the most difficult rally for Abbring to start his WRC works driver career.

    It was originally a very weird decision by Hyundai to give Sordo a car #8 for Rally Sweden, so now their line up is not so much different, but they are thinking in the long run and know that there is no chance to get good results in Sweden.

    Abbring has at least talents and not so easy situation for Paddon, because probably Kevin will be faster already in Sweden...

    I say, the best for him is to debut on snow. Because nobody expects anything from him. No pressure, no disappointment. He can only win from this. If he has the talent of quick learner, he can show "something" later in the rally.

    What a spaniard coincidence.
    Carlos Sainz had a mountain bike accident too in which he injured his right shoulder.
