Who is he talking about?

If I had to guess, he’s talking about (all?) the Hyundai drivers.

The more interesting things being said here is Fourmaux talking about reverting to the ‘24 car but even more interesting and is probably a sign of things to come is Neuville’s comments about team members leaving the team in the last few months…I’m starting to think that despite them confirming it after Greece we might not get to see them for ‘26…

Yeah, that also.

About Neuville, he also said that they now have "more insurance" about future but it is hard to "start the machine again, it takes time".

Think Hyundai will continue for 26. Probably a minimal effort (and maybe that's why Tanak keeps his options open), but that should be it. They are definitely out from 2027 onwards.

Hyundai is continuing in 26, it has already been confirmed. Minimal effort? No. Minimal would have been when they would have let some other to run the team (rumour was that Neuville was going to do that). They really planned to leave, this is why so many workers left Hyundai but they changed their mind and now they are trying to get things moving again for 2026.

Don't think major development work can be expected for the i20. They already used the jokers they had and regulations are freezing most of the parts for next year anyways. So, they can keep running what they have with Neuville and Fourmaux behind the wheel. Guess if Tanak has no options he will continue with them.

What are you talking about? In 2026 they have 4 jokers.
