Actually, couple of weeks ago they were already business associates. The contract was signed already a month ago, so they fooled us all for quite a long time...

Hopefully, Adamo’s touring car racing backgroung will help him managing 2 top drivers under the same roof.
Anyway, I’m still puzzled about Tanak’s move to Hyundai: he’s the undisputed nr 1 driver in Toyota; the Yaris is the best car (despite a few reliability issues); the team has been ahead of the competition developing it and is based in Finland/Estonia; Toyota could pay whatever Tanak wants; why on hearth is he living?Rally addict since 1982

It puzzles me too but what I've heard Tommi's really hard to work with (not that Tänak and Märtin isn't) and they sort of have mutual respect with Adamo. As a team boss Tommi has been described as softy. But this is all hearsay coming not from the direct sources. Never knows, we will see in a couple of days.
Personally I like Adamo wayy more than Tommi. This guy is pure balls out...

I bet that, 6-7-8 mil.. there is no difference to Toyota or Hyundai.. To be main things are the Nr 1 driver of the team and development of the new era car. Couple of hundred K's here and there is the easiest to agree.

Well from the outside it's not possible to know how it "actually" is inside the team. But from outside view I also don't see any good reason for Tanak either.
For Adamo it's the best move he could do atm by all means. If Tanak wins in Hyundai it's good for Adamo, if it removes one of two Neuville's biggest opponents it's also great.
For manu title it's only Tanak's points that were keeping Toyota in fight for manu champ. Tanak scored 40 manu points more than Neuville this year, yet Toyota is 18 behind, so other Hyundai drivers got 58 more points than other Toyota drivers.
