Great 1-2-3 result for Hyundai. I think so far it's safe to say that the car is more robust compared to the old one in terms of suspensions that don't randomly fall off anymore... interesting to see they seem also to have less gremlins than the disastrous beginning of the year, but if I recall correctly Tanak said they did nothing about them?
I understand both Neuville and Tanak's points of view, but honestly no matter what they do, no way Kalle is losing the championship. If it was a small gap, then not issuing team orders would have been very wrong.

I'd do team orders but did you actually notice that Latvala said he would not?
(They didn't in Sweden 2020).

Would Toyota management be called all sorts of things then?

No, golden boy Tänak was not involved back then.

You could bet Ott would do everything had the gap been reduced to 44 points, sure he’ll still go for it in New-Zealand, less road cleaning than here in Greece. Now though, Kalle needs just to outscore Ott by 8 points in NZ.

[EstWRC]

Estonian media reportin that Kalle and Thierry were 8 and 12 minutes late to the last control point but so far no penalties yet, they dont know if the rules are there different or not

My pictures from the event.

That's slightly different; that was the second event of the season, which is far too early for teams orders. We're now at the business end of the season.....

True, but Latvala said in an interview today (or yesterday?) that he wouldn't do teamordets if he was boss at Hyundai.

So if Tanak doesn't like it, the situation won't be better at Toyota.


Malcolm would without a doubt do teamorders.

Apparently it was the team president, Noh, who instructed to hold positions.

People forget Kim (not Noh) assumed the team principal roll and Moncet is his deputy team principal. It's not unusual request even if it was 'Korea' minded and not sporting. Why Dirtfish insist calling Moncet deputy director, I just don't know.
