WRC Testing

[Lancia Stratos]

Without even looking at a calendar, I'm pretty confident it's late October...

Y'know, it is possible (believe it or not) that, every now and again, public figures make slightly misleading statements about how far along their cars are in the development process...

Surely not.....What? You mean the team that was the first to order its hybrid parts might be further along with its development than has been suggested? Surely, surely not......

“The exhaust is just passing on the right side of our legs in all new cars, so for Toyota and Ford it’s the same, and this is causing some massive heat,” Wydaeghe said.

“Now we are almost in winter time so it’s quite cold outside, but if you go to Portugal or Sardinia or Kenya it will be a big challenge.

“But we have good engineers and I’m sure we can find some solutions for that, I hope.”

Järveoja added: “I think the heat will be quite difficult in the hot rallies.

“Today when we are testing it’s quite cold outside but in the car it’s already quite hot, so let’s see.”
