    I see no call but cool control by Paddon compared to out of control by Neuville.

    Breaking news: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articl...al-investments

    No word yet on whether motorsport is seen as an 'essential investment'. Okay we have some assurances seemingly from VW in Corsica but honestly big decisions are being made all the time at board level. So let's see.

    EDIT: Bit more here - http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/in...s-painful-cuts

    You know for sure motorsport is being looked at.

    here we go...


    Team Principal Hyundai, Michel Nandan regretted the absence of Thierry Neuville in the vanguard in Corsica, while the fight raged in the constructors.

    "He and us big points visions, important in our fight with Citroen for 2nd place overall (184 points to 183 for the French brand now), but unfortunately saw his abandonment on SS1, this objective soon became impossible to achieve laments French. It is particularly unfortunate that the difficult conditions experienced Friday are usually a context that appreciates and in which he does very well normally. We know that in Rally2 start (with penalties so) is never easy, but a pro driver must learn to ignore it and motivate. As for the understeer, which he spoke, all drivers of all brands are complaining ... Perhaps his style suffers more, but it was already the case last year and he made a super season even as its start in 2015, moreover, absolutely fantastic. It should therefore not focus on it. Why things go less well in the second half of the season? I do not have the answer. And if you have, I'm interested ... We all know the qualities of his driving, but there may be a challenge to have, a step back to take to bounce back. "

    Neuville: "World Champion Yes With Hyundai or another?".

    OLIVIER DE WILDE Published
    Wednesday, September 30, 2015 at 5:42 p.m. - Updated Thursday, October 1st, 2015 at 6:42



    Criticized in recent weeks by the leaders of Hyundai but also in the press for his lack of motivation and performance considered, by some, "unworthy of a pilot of his rank," Thierry Neuville was speaking on the eve of the Tour de Corsica beginning this Friday. An exclusive and frankly not waffling maintenance.

    Thierry, you have suffered a lot of criticism in recent weeks. Do you consider them to be justified?

    "I've already admitted having experienced a slump, notably in Portugal where, because of low morale, I made a mistake. But I do not do it on purpose. It should be understood that since j I have the age of five, I dream to drive for a factory team in the WRC and become world champion. In 2013, with Ford, I was runner-up. I then signed with Hyundai hoping to go a step further. In 2014, I certainly won my first world rally but the regular, although everyone knows can not play before. We had announced the new car for the month of May. When I learned that it would begin in January, I was disappointed, that's normal. Two years is a bit long ... "

    But since you've recaptured. Are you satisfied with your seventh place in Australia?

    "From the gross profit, no. But I was the first on the road behind the VW. Tenth and eleventh on the road, my teammates enjoyed a much better position. We can not compare our performance. I made a good rally. It was not possible to go faster. We must not forget that our goals are not the same. I have to score points for the Championship manufacturers. Most important, it ' is the team. Second place behind VW is our priority. You know, from Sardinia, I scored 52 points. Only Ogier and Latvala have done better. And at this stage of the championship, I registered more units than last year. "

    Your balance is positive?

    "With this material, it is difficult to do better. Everyone knows that at the beginning of the season, I shot several victories. My ambitions were postponed with the debut of the new car."

    What do you think of the look of the new Hyundai WRC presented at the IAA?

    "It was only a model that has nothing to do with real WRC."

    Have you participated in the recent tests the new car?

    "Not because I was co-driving sessions in Paris. Kevin (Abbring) Hayden (Paddon) and Dani (Sordo) took turns at the wheel, but it was all planned. I prefer to arrive when it really moving. It will be the case after Corsica and especially after Spain. "

    The team director Michel Nandan seems upset that your manager discusses with other manufacturers ...

    "I doubt he is annoyed by this. This is normal. Everyone does his work. It stands just informed ..."

    Could you decide to leave the Korean factory end of 2016?

    "We are still far away. For 2017, there will be new regulations and many things could change."

    Do you still think you can become a world champion with Hyundai?

    (After a long silence). "World champion yes, I will continue to fight for it with Hyundai or another manufacturer, that we will see will depend 2016. I feel good in this team, but I want to. have the means to win. "

    Neuville really seems a bit spoiled. Of course I understand his disappointment but he should be over that by now.

    No excuses anymore next year.

    How does that make it more expensive?

    apart from the cars and essential parts, they use different equipment for the long haul and european events.

    Given that it must take a few weeks to get this long haul container stuff from Mexico to Argentina, you may as well do another event somewhere in Europe...

    Sometimes I wonder who has bigger ego - he or Ogier...
