Hyundai has bolstered its ranks for next year with 2019 world champion Tanak joining the squad from M-Sport for a second spell at the Alzenau operation. The Estonian will reunite with Neuville to ensure the Korean brand has two lead drivers capable of challenging for the world title.
Abiteboul made his intentions clear at the start of the 2023 campaign that Neuville was Hyundai’s number one driver and title contender, which resulted in team orders being issued as early as round two in Sweden.
