Rally Italia Sardegna 2022

[meh]

Friend said that, there was an interview with Tanak to Estonian media, where he said that the team listens more to Neuville(who has been there nearly 10 years), but he(Tanak) gives his best to say his word also..

If so then.. wtf.
No wonder Hyundai and Neuville won't ever get the title.. He has only been to one team and maybe that is why he can't thinks differently..

Watched the rally and got some hope that they have improved a lot.

Now watched that interview.. and I'm not that optimistic anymore.

I can imagine, how disappointed he actually can be. I remember from some interview, when he was asked for future perspective after winning the title - he said, that he is interested to be part of building new generation car, to be able to build the things like he sees the best.

For that exact reason he made the contract quite early last year. and then... Hyundai basically just blew it up with delaying every kind of decisions to start development, then lack of leadership with Adamo leaving and there is still Neuville's legacy with what they driving. He is master, he can adapt his driving, but it's not something like "being one with the car" effect. He is really good mechanic, he was in important role for building successful car for M-Sport for 2017. And now... Such a waste of talent and waste of time in a way.

From positive side - if they will get it working, it will taste good for sure

edit: one more thing. It was Adamo personally who hired/convinced him to join. They seemed to match quite well, and we know how that developed - Adamo left. Another reason, why he joined, didn't realize or do not exists anymore.
