OK, the Polo sounds a little bit better than the Skoda at least...
4.5/10 for noise
Looks VERY planted on the tarmac sectors of Catalunya shakedown.aka Rodger Davies

Works Škodas are still silent but some which use Vančík engines already have nicer sound. Check it here: https://youtu.be/wN42uTERO-I?t=77

Small observation from Spain... Polo R5 uses the most common front suspension layout with rear-inclined strut. VW unlike Hyundai and Citroën didn't copy Fabia R5 but stayed with what they had on Polo WRC.

This was written in the press release they sent out yesterday:
"The completion of the Polo GTI R5’s successful debut at the Rally Spain sees the next phase in Volkswagen’s new customer sport project get underway. The first 15 models have been sold to eight customer teams and are due to be delivered before the end of 2018."
Also, for general interest: "However, a competition like the Rally Spain is always different from testing – which is why a minor defect had a major impact. But the problem with the shift linkage is easy to solve and eliminate before the car is delivered to customers."Photos: rallirinki.kuvat.fi | Twitter: @HartusvuoriWRC

VW looking good, but I still like the looks of the Skoda. Especially in person.. it looks more aggressive with more pronounced fender flares.
