Embarrassing Power Stage from Tänak. Everyone could see that coming as soon as the tyre choice came out lol.

Well, putting softs in the rear doesn´t make the car less understeered, does it?

Embarrassing performance today. Nothing to say

Why is the tyre choice a team effort? Doesn't the driver make the executive decision?

Japan will be same and Monte in 3 months will be same..damn

I mean, driver should be the one with ultimate power to make the decision, he drives the car and knows what suits his style. Team can do their utmost to help with that but driver should make the decision. Isn't it so with Hyundai then?

Everything will be the same next year

Toyota has taken even bigger step this year with the new tires and no hybrid.

The Power Stage time was so bad Tänak would‘ve probably lost P2 even without that incident at the bridge on the previous stage.

Incredible no-show once again.

You guys didn't understand. Tänak couldn't have gone with 4S as they would have melted up. So they had to use hard tyre, but Hyundai is so understeery then hard tyre makes it more underteerable. Everybody in the team knew it and they couldn't do anything about it.
