    Were they wise to take out such an important new car in such conditions for its first real road test ? There was still time for a Monte PET and to test the car in a safer environment to start with.

    I saw the the photo and read this:

    'Thierry Neuville and Martijn Wydaeghe crashed into a ravine during a test drive in Labastide-Rouairoux. The new Hyundai i20 looked bad.

    Neuville and Wydaeghe were testing the vehicle under extreme weather conditions.'

    Now they can bring back the old car and test rims

    Jokes aside, then do they in a way insure themselves for these kind of situations and make 2 cars ready, if something goes wrong with the main car?

    Unless it's a giant siren on top of the car, average Joe won't know the difference.
    Never stop dreaming because one day it might happen.

    I assume at this point they will have at least 3 cars ready or about ready.
