Maybe another sign Seb could be the long-term replacement for John Kennard? Awesome if so.

I believe that Camiili is not allowed to have "gravel crew" ?

Yes I think so too.

Why not? Every crew can have one, if I'm not mistaken.

In Monte Carlo every crew can have a gravel crew. At least it was the case last time we were there in 2012. It's a bit strange as the rules said that only WRC drivers can have a route note car but in this case I think it's ACM that allows everybody to use them

And I have one for you... how does it help Hyundai to market their cars ?

They dont even let the general rally fans in their massive service building.

Yes they do... I have been in it.

Yes all can have it. #90 Jocius/Zvicevčius gravel crew Lithuania champion R.Čapkauskas and Jocius' former codriver K.Torrau.

Yes, but there is quite big difference. Tents always cool town quickly when car enters and then warms up slowly, which is good. You cannot achieve it with building.

I wouldn't be too worried about that aspect. After all, these are cars made to go though water splashes, mud, dust, snow etc.

The small amount of condensated water is nothing to worry about.

Neither is the tiny thermal expansion this brings. The Hyundai and VW cars are testament to this.
