I have understood the Hyundai has to be driven more agressively to be fast with it. Tänak has mentioned in many cases, that the car itself drives unnaturaly for him and he likes to drive differently.

Tänak obviously has driven over the limit in many cases and a smart drive would have been better. Still the Portugal response from FX seems like lame excuse to shift the responsibility to Tänak. If you want to win, then you have to be the fastest and if the car breaks with this speed, then it is not strong enough. Toyotas haven't had this kind of issues for a long time anymore.

Agree with that 100%

This!

If you want to see aggressive style then watch how Fourmaux drivers or Lappi back in the day. That’s aggressive style

And I guess last year he didn't drive anywhere agressively, especially there, when he bin it completely on several ocassions

I don’t get this argument. Ogier binned three rallies in a row last year, was he also driving aggressively then?

In case of Fourmaux and Lappi, they are/were all the time sideways or power sliding. That is one form of aggressiveness.

But you can also be aggressive when you brake very late and accelerate hard, cut corners and use road edges, you are very committed (staying flat-out over crests, jumps, or blind corners, trusting pace notes or not taking slow when there are rough places on the stage), high physical inputs from driver.
