Just noticed this interview from Dirtfish with Tanak.
He is asked about Oliver Solberg and if he had any say! He says "I am not like my teammate, who is organising drivers in the team"
Is this a dig at Neuville making some decisions?
Or am I reading it the wrong way?!
EDIT: Sorry I probably have posted this in the Hyundai thread
Seemed to me like Neuville was avoiding and dodging around the answer when Colin asked if he had any say in Olivers departure. Like he was pushing for a 4th car in hyundai, but when that wasnt possible they decided to sack him because he is yet too slow
I can imagine the test debriefing meetings. Nothing much said & a lot of "Gallic shrugs" - and they wonder why they aren't getting anywhere!
I think they need a good test & development driver...
I've noticed multiple times now, the forum is very sluggish in the evening. Then after 23:00 UTC (00:00 CET), like clockwork, it becomes instantly loading and instantly usable again. I don't know...
And at the end of the 2025 season he said that all of his vacations are planned on the rally weekends so he wouldn't have time to watch or participate :D
After Monte they said, dont worry Sweden will be better.
They'd moved their test base to Finland 3 years ago to sort the car on fast gravel (and snow).
And in Sweden... they were worse.
