has not Yet begun the european season of earth, and nevertheless, many are the eyes that look to the season 2017 WRC. The arrival of the new World Rally Car, the return of Toyota and the pilots who end contract at the end of this year cause the transfer market is very hot in spite of having only contested four rallies of the calendar. So much so that already you are carrying out the first conversations between the pilots and the manufacturers. In this aspect, Dani Sordo has on the table two tantalizing offers.
Dani Sordo finishes his contract with Hyundai Motorsport at the end of the year, as Thierry Neuville. However, the pilot spaniard seems to have a better position than the belgian driver as is proved by the information of ‘Motorsport.com’ and the Spanish newspaper ‘AS’. According to both media, Dani Sordo has a renewal offer of Hyundai Motorsport for at least a season, every time that the Korean company values in a positive way in their performance. In this aspect, Hyundai has chosen as lead pilot with the FIA and the Spanish is only going to be driving the third Hyundai i20 WRC in one of the six first trials of the calendar.
in Addition to this offer, Dani Sordo is in negotiations with another
manufacturer. Although at first it was assumed that it was with Toyota,
as the team, led by Tommi Mäkinen Racing need as a minimum
two riders pointers, the own Deaf has stated that it has not
engaged in conversation with the Finnish band. In this aspect, and
by pure discard, the other manufacturer that shows an interest in Dani Sordo
is Citroën, formation with which he competed in the past and with which
he earned the title of the Junior WRC and his first outright victory in the
World Rally.
In any case, Deaf prefer
focus on the next rally and more when you will have a role
the protagonist in the following two tests. In fact, Hyundai has
announced that Sordo and Paddon will be judging for the brand in Sardinia,
repeating in Italy the same bet that they are going to follow in the next
Rally of Portugal. In this way, Thierry Neuville again
relegated to the third Hyundai i20 WRC, which has fueled
possibilities of departure from the belgian, who according to rumors is also
in discussions with Citroen. Kevin Abbring will be the fourth pilot
Hyundai in the Rally of Italy-Sardinia with the i20 WRC 2015.
