Tanak not worried about 2024 WRC title bid after difficult start
Hyundai’s new signing, Ott Tanak, has openly admitted that his performance this season has been subpar, citing critical errors in both the Monte Carlo and Sweden rallies. Despite being considered a top contender for the championship, Tanak currently trails behind teammate Neuville and Toyota’s Evans in fifth place. In Monte Carlo, he encountered issues with ice and an anti-lag system, finishing a distant fourth. In Sweden, Tanak crashed out but managed to salvage points under the new points system. While acknowledging the challenging start, Tanak remains optimistic and focused on improving for the upcoming events, notably the rally in Kenya. Despite the setbacks, he is determined to bounce back and deliver a strong performance in the upcoming races.
