    Now that there's no Gus/Solberg/Formaux, Loubet has much better drivers to compare to. Hope he doesn't break under pressure

    MORE ON LOUBET
    His day is over. While the Frenchman is able to change the damaged rear link arm, his Puma's hub bracket is also broken.

    The new Skoda must be way ahead of the Citroen C3. Rossel and Lefebvre are faster...

    The Puma doesn’t look nice to drive, but Loubet needs to watch Tanak’s onboards and how he is much calmer with his inputs. He (Loubet) is making so many small inputs that are upsetting the car, whereas Tanak is just accepting that it understeers mid corner but carves a much smoother turn in with minimal inputs. Tanak knows it’s slow, but isn’t trying to fight it.
    The Puma in tarmac spec reminds me a bit of the 2017 spec Hyundai to watch.

    It's amazing how a 2023. spaceframe car can understeer so much. What the hell are they doing at M-sport?

    A bit early but seems Huyndai´s long term strategy is failing...

    The only thing I can think of is that the 2017 spec Fiesta was the opposite, very unstable at the rear and you could always see the drivers fighting it, and they tried to make sure the Puma was not like that, but have gone too far.

    Does anyone know if there is still jokers left to update the C3 or have they used all of them?
