Hyundai WRT

And Neuville is adding insult to the injury:

"The team is in a bit of a crisis"
Disappointed with his fifth place in Portugal, Neuville had the courage to put words to the situation within the Hyundai team, relegated to 59 points behind Toyota (175 against 116). Words that may seem harsh, but they attest to the improvement desired by our compatriot, victim of four mechanical problems in four rallies.

"History repeats itself: we have seen it in other years, we are encountering several problems. If we add them up, we are behind, we are missing points. It's a shame because we have all the tools to perform. We need people who make decisions, who lead the team, who have the strength and the charisma to manage a company like Hyundai Motorsport. Today, we lack them. The team is in a bit of a crisis." , he told Belgian RTBF in the debrief after the race https://www.rtbf.be/article/wrc-port...allye-10997896

And if you put 1 + 1 then this post from last year on www.rallyssimo.it sounds maybe the more true: "Dani Sordo remains with Hyundai for another year. A managerial role for him in the future?"

"Apart from his performances, however excellent, what is striking is the consistency of his performance, essential for the constructors' championship, which earned him the nickname of "Mister Consistency" from Andrea Adamo. But there are also other qualities of Dani Sordo that are almost as good as his skills at the wheel, which perhaps not everyone knows and which can open the doors to a managerial role at the end of his experience as a driver.

In fact, his experience continues to be a gold mine in many respects. For example, Dani is the driver in charge of rolling out and testing before running all the cars participating in each rally. He also acted as an intermediary and was instrumental in the signings of Sebastien Loeb and Ott Tanak. He is the extra man in all circumstances and, thanks to his communication skills, he always manages to make himself indispensable."
