Neuville & Tanak Looking For Title Fight

Hyundai team-mates Neuville & Tanak are already on the same page with both drivers looking to fight for the 2024 title.

Being more frequent rally winners is a core target for Hyundai Motorsport in 2024.

Cyril Abiteboul said: “This year, we want to target more frequent wins, which we hope to achieve with our refreshed driver line-up and improved Hyundai i20 N Rally1 Hybrid. Also, given the nature of the 2024 season, we believe we can fight for the drivers’ title. Ott had unfinished business with the team, and once we started talking, we realised there was a mutual interest to finish it. Alongside Thierry, we have two drivers capable of claiming the crown.

Thierry Neuville said: “The targets for us in 2024 are the same as always: we want to be frontrunners throughout the whole season and fight for the championships. This will naturally be tough, and we will have to perform well at every rally to make it possible, but we will do all we can to push for the titles. We have a very strong line-up of crews this year and that will definitely help us battle for victories and podiums to have a successful season. The reorganisation of the team should also keep us moving in a positive direction. Our first goal will be to make a strong start at Rallye Monte-Carlo, an event where we have been competitive before and finished on the podium many times in the past.”

Ott Tänak said: “I’m very excited and motivated to be back with Hyundai Motorsport. I can see great excitement from the team and there is clearly a collective drive to achieve and produce a strong season. We will start the year on a clean sheet and it all will be in our own hands to start building a strong season. Of course, we aim to win the title and so does the team, so we are at the start of an exciting year.”
