Craig Breen says he's already comfortable using the hybrid system in the new Puma Rally1. It probably sounds more complicated on paper than it is in use by the driver's once they adapt.
The big complication for them will be making new pacenotes, marking places where they think they will be usng the power boost. The choice of which torque map to use will also tricky.

Good reply I received when I posted on Twitter re the 'complex new hybrid system'...
'If it’s anything like F1, there will be at least 5 years of explaining it all on every single rally, “for those new to WRC”.

Toyota's Tom Fowler on the work involved in designing their Rally1 car:

Plus interestingly...
'from what he’s seen the M-Sport Ford Puma Rally1 is “quite a different concept to ours”.Last edited by Fast Eddie WRC; 5th January 2022 at 18:03.

Do the teams share the same chassis plans and Toyota are building theirs in the workshop? Or do they mean the roll cage is shared. Have Hyundai said whether the i20 is bodyshell or spaceframe yet?

Seeing the back of the Hyundai after Neuville's crash.. It's pretty sure that they use spaceframe..

If I remember right Jan Skála, who is a supplier of carbon parts for all WRC teams, said in an interview on ewrc that they were all using spaceframe.
By the way he said his company in the last two months produced 1300 carbon parts for Puma alone (less for Hyundai and a lot less for Toyota).Last edited by Mirek; 5th January 2022 at 19:46.

M-Sport needing parts for 4 Puma's in Monte Carlo gave him many wrinkles...

It is very likely that Oscar Piastri's name will be added at the end of this season in this list.
