Hi, Steemers!
This season Hyundai has three really good drivers: Neuville, Paddon and Sordo.
Let's be clear: Neuville is a potential World Champ of the future. He has only one problem: he's crashing too much.
Sordo has bright moments but he is in World Rally Championship from 2006 (privateer season with Citroen Xsara WRC) and he has a few more years in front of him in top level of the sport. The best thing about him is that he's consistant - he finishes every rally he started. Other two drivers fail with this on some occasions.
The other thing is that Sordo is a tarmac specialist. He and Neuville are on the same level on tarmac but on gravel - lets be honest: Neuville is quicker.
ADAC Rallye Germany is a tarmac rally with no places for mistakes. It's driven in Baumholder region (where German Army trains their tank troops. They also have 'Hinkelsteins' beside road. It's concrete block deep a three or four meters in the ground that can stop tank and that helps their soldiers with training in the tank not to move away from the road.
But when you crash on 'Hinkelsteins' with rally car, it can be real disaster with serious accident.
Hyundai World Rally Team started their testing and I found some photos and videos of it.
