Tanak has "bigger things to worry about" than WRC points deficit
Hyundai driver Ott Tanak has yet to find success this year, failing to reach the podium after three rounds of the championship. Tanak’s misfortunes included crashes in Monte Carlo and Sweden, as well as a rock-induced exit at Safari Rally Kenya.
Despite a good points haul at Kenya, Tanak is 34 points behind championship leader Thiery Neuville, focusing on regaining his consistency and form.
With Hyundai not favoring a single top driver this season, Tanak’s goal is to bounce back in the upcoming Croatia rally to stay competitive in the title race.
Team principal Cyril Abiteboul hinted that Hyundai might need to prioritize supporting one of its contenders over the other as the season progresses.
