Everyone that slags off M-Sport will be the first to moan if they pull out and leave WRC with a two-horse race and less cars than ever.
At the moment they are having a tough patch but most people want them to succeed against the odds and financial power of Toyota & Hyundai. Plus Tanak is one of the biggest draws in WRC and he would/will be gone if it wasn't for MSport.

The rough patch:

The problem is that one of the biggest draws in WRC could be gone after this season anyways, just because M-Sport did not deliver at all.

Just saw a split second clip of the Tanak retirement. What's he meant to do? Tinpot reliability.
The only criticism I could give him, was if he went against engineering advice and lowered the car beyond any reasonable risk

Im wondering has M-sport tried something with the engine, some upgrades that are possible without jokers, and it has gone south, because we didn't have these constant engine problems before Kenya, now it seems every time they roll out of the service park there comes some engine trouble after few km's

Can be also a hidden problem with a particular batch of parts like Skoda had last year.

We maybe have to reconsider Neuville's pace on high speed events. Now when he had a more competitive car, then the speed was speed there, previously the Hyundai was just so bad and it didn't give him...
