“We are one team, we have one goal and the three crews know exactly what needs to happen come Sunday.

On that occasion the bid failed when an error from Neuville in the Power Stage meant Craig Breen finished second, ahead of the Belgian, negating a 10s penalty for checking into the final stage late on purpose to switch the running order.Īsked if team orders could return on Sunday, Abiteboul said: “I think everyone knows and everyone shares the same objective. Hyundai has history of attempting to deploy them orders to favour Neuville already this season when it tried to move the Belgian into second at Rally Sweden. Its second full-time driver Esapekka Lappi is fourth, 2.3s behind Neuville after losing grip of third across Saturday afternoon.
