als ik de wagens zo bekijk... 1 groot nadeel voor de 2 Belgen... budget!
Hyundai
Technical: The team has not done any specialist testing ahead of this
event. The only changes to the car are to the differential mapping and
suspension settings, which make it easier to drive on snow and ice.
Quotes: Freddy Loix said: “I’m feeling good for this rally. I had the pins
taken out of my leg (put in after he broke his leg on this event last
year) after Rally Great Britain, which means that I have been able to get
on and do plenty of exercise over the winter.”
Ford
Technical: Ford start the season with an improved 2002-specification Focus
RS WRC. This will be the team’s first event in two years running on
Michelin tyres, following its closed-season switch from Pirelli. The team
has been testing right up until the start of the recce earlier this week.
François Duval said: “This is my first Monte Carlo in a World Rally Car.
It’s going to be very different to last year, when I was in the Junior
World Rally Championship. My objective is to get some points, but I have a
lot to learn.”
