This is strange also. Paddon also has bitter memory from that crash, when fan/photographer died. I think that this was his momemnt when everything go down for him.

That's pretty strange, throwing him in on such a tricky rally to learn the Rally1 car.

The only reason I can think off is it being in a 4th or 5th car besides sordo, just to learn the car.

But it wouldn't suprise me if Hyundai was stupid enough to nominate him for constructors points.

Hyundai will never field 4 cars. At some point I was even thinking that they will not even have 3 cars at all, since they have those strange and unlogical decisions.

But we are happy Paddon is back. It's been so long we have him in WRC the last time. Wish him all the best (good results for team and also for him)

Will he get to learn it at all with all this rotation in drivers ? Afraid all of them end up with lack of confidendence and seat time. Hope i am wrong.

he just have to be in front of fords, then as soon as people will hit trouble he will be p5 at least. he's consistent enough to cruise for it. there's other 2 hiunday to fight forthe top.
