However and watching videos we see a clear evolution of the car with the latest images we saw at the end of last year. Pilots have highlighted in these new cars that are much more agile where you can go in-depth in areas that the old 2.0 WRC had to be "hollow out".


We have new developments in engine, which is noted. If we continue in this vein, we reach a good level. We have tested a new spoiler but at the end he has returned to the old because the car badly supported fast cornering. But where most are working is in suspension. They want us to go hard and I prefer softer to gain traction. There is time until the first rally and work is noticing.
