If Hyundai say no in June, WRC have a real Challenge on their hand.
4 top factory drivers is not good.
And had I been sitting in the board knowing what is coming, I would have said no.
Hyundai have a 800v Ionic 5 coming, that is a quick charger, and they would need a charging truck btw stages.

So to push all the needed money into Hybrid now, is too late.
As said by others: FIA missed an option not going ahead with the all electric WRX series a few years back. They would have been much more of a suitable testbed. Lets see what the Extreme E series get out of its first season
