Hyundai WRT

[Mackie]

I have seen some really comited passes too. Let's see, I think that he will be better than on tarmac

I really hope so. When I see Tänak gunning for it on these type of stages, he has few corrections. I think you reduce tire wear this way, but hopefully Mikkelsen can find a good setup for him.

Any videos of Mikkelsen testing?

Seeing Hyundai following closely this season (at least in their social media accounts), there’s no way he’ll make a fourth entry this year, right?

About who you are talking?

Paddon?

Paddon?

Yes, Paddon.Sorry, should've mentioned who lol.

If Hyundai enters 4 cars in one or more rallies, I would imagine them being Tanak, Neuville, Lappi and Mikkelsen.

Paddon does promote Hyundai on a big scale, for a long time now, but they don't care much about him. They do brag when he bring good results with that car and that's it. Shame, because I think he could have at least official program in WRC2 and promote there. I think they realize that the car is not as competitive as Skoda or Citroen now. But I think in the hands of Paddon it could be there.

Paddon gets a lot of support from Hyundai New Zealand branch but not from Hyundai Team.

If you havent heard it yet, this is a must listen.. a quite brilliant episode of Back Stories with Christian Loriaux. Hilarious !

I second that, listening to it right now, really interesting, I wish we'd get more behind the scenes things like that.
