- Today I put aside the Toyota tests to follow Hyundai Motorsport which is also preparing its car and its drivers for the upcoming Rallye Monte-Carlo, first round of the 2025 World Rally Championship. Ott Tänak was the driver behind the wheel of the 2025-spec i20 N Rally1 during this rainy day. Watch and hear the car in action on the chosen road!

I love the color grading for all of your recent videos, keep it up mate!
I agree! Stepping up the game 👏🏻
Glad it's noticeable and so happy it seems many of you are liking it! All the credit goes to my friend @hexgraphica who is helping me a lot on this side
love the loud pops on the upshifts and the anti lag sound of the hyundai
Thank you from England, your videos are the best
No worries! Thanks a lot for the kind comment, mate!
Thank you for the great rally car footage.👍
No problem at all! Thanks for watching
Fantastic thank you
No worries! Thanks for watching
damn that was very close at some corners
God this sounds so good. Love a burping rally car exhaust 😅
Excellent video.
I love being a rally fan because it's essentially a year-round sport. These drivers barely have any time to rest between events though, haha
anti lag with a touch of soft rain !!
Top!! 🚀
Anti lag is the best
Nice graphics
Please get some non hybrid Puma footage next!
I'm sorry but I can't get that footage.. I was hoping to see M-Sport testing in the days I had planned to be in France but I learned late that their first test would have been today. And I'm already back home in Italy 😢
@19Bozzy92 Oh well nermind, I sincerely appreciate the footage that you have provided so far. Thank you!
How I think I look hooning my Veloster N on the way to work
I watch all rally videos on headphones, I really miss the low tones, more bass!! :)

Ma perché nonostante l'eliminazione della parte ibrida le auto mantegono le prese d'aria laterali?
Maybe to cool the brakes?
Il motivo principale dovrebbe riguardare i cosiddetti 'Homologation Jokers', un modo per contenere i costi di determinati campionati/categorie (sono presenti anche nel WEC per esempio) e frenare lo sviluppo eccessivo delle vetture da parte di team economicamente messi meglio di altri. Ogni team ha a disposizione solo pochi 'Joker' durante la stagione e sono spesso utilizzati per aggiornamenti al motore, mappature o telaio/meccanica. Anche sul fronte aerodinamico sono necessari per modificare determinate componenti che richiedono una successiva omologazione. Col cambio regolamentare last-minute per le Rally1 del 2025 la FIA non ha apportato cambi regolamentari o concesso deroghe per permettere di rimuovere e modificare senza l'utilizzo dei 'Joker' determinate componenti (aerodinamiche e non) utilizzate soprattutto per il sistema ibrido. Quindi per il momento i team hanno preferito non sciupare i loro Joker e sfruttare quello che il regolamento gli permette di fare 'gratuitamente': coprire le prese d'aria sul paraurti posteriore e chiudere i condotti che portavano aria fresca al sistema ibrido (prese d'aria laterali).
Toyota ha dalla sua la fortuna di avere già aggiornato le sue prese d'aria laterali nel 2023, inserendole all'interno della carrozzeria, e per di più la fortuna di avere la doppia funzione di portare aria sia a raffreddare l'ibrido sia i freni. Quindi loro ora hanno semplicemente bloccato il condotto che portava aria al pacco batterie e tenuto aperto quello verso i freni posteriori.
Hyundai invece ha quelle prese d'aria dietro ai finestrini posteriori che servivano solamente per l'ibrido, mentre il condotto che porta aria ai freni è collocato più in basso, vicino alle ruote posteriori, ma in occasione di questi test è stato tappato con del nastro bianco (lo noti a 0:11, di fianco al logo '10 years' della Shell) credo per le basse temperature della giornata. Da quanto so sono anche loro toppate ma ovviamente dovrebbero creare del drag aerodinamico a causa del loro design. Problema è che Hyundai ha già utilizzato tutti i suoi joker di omologazione per il 2025 e 2026 su una i20 Rally1 Evo che avrebbe dovuto esordire già in questi test (e dal Rally di Monte Carlo) se i regolamenti Rally1 Ibridi non fossero stati cambiati all'ultimo minuto, facendo slittare il loro programma di sviluppo su questa vettura
I remember when the most exciting Hyundai model was the Pony… a small RWD hatchback. It was neither pretty nor powerful. They’ve come a long, long way!
I mean can we blame the FIA when these cars had the hybrid thing? They were just trying to show some love to the environment, just like most car manufacturers were doing, but most enthusiasts saw it as a failure. At least, removing it will make THEM happy, but not the environment... And also, if all that I just said was nonsense, just let me know.
It kinda is nonsense, but not from you. After all, that's what we've all been sold, right? And there's grains of truth to Rally1's former direction: hybrid drivetrains CAN BE more energy efficient, and lower consumption IS good for the environment in the grand scheme of things. However:
- The electric motors and batteries Rally1 cars used to use were spec components, meaning the manufacturers developing these cars weren't ever going to learn anything that could benefit road car R&D (Toyota especially won't have learned anything they didn't already know from LMP1).
- Since they cost a ton of money to run in spite of this, there were never many of them out there, while entry lists for world championship rallies continue to see a strong contingent of Rally2 cars (which AREN'T hybrids), neutralizing any presumed environmental gains from the top class's switch.
- On top of all this, the kinds of hybrids most race teams will see as useful - parallel hybrids that mainly rely on the electrical component for bursts of low-end torque and _have_ to make use of combustion engines for all but the shortest, slowest journeys - won't really make the biggest difference for the environment.
Rally1 cars being hybrids was a publicity move meant to make the WRC _look_ green, with the extra incentive that such a PR win might lure Citroen back to the top class (which didn't happen). It was a useless exercise in real terms, as the cars didn't even really get any faster, which is likely where most enthusiasts fell off the bandwagon. The last generation of LMP1 cars were hybrids and also rocket ships, and people still adore them.
it had nothing to do with the environment. ICE power wasn't limited in any way so fuel consumption was the same as before. Tbh I don't know what 'enthusiasts' are you talking about because hybrid cars sound the same and are faster (at least out of the corner) than non-hybrid. The main problem was that hybrid components were too expensive and there was no benefit for the teams in terms of technology development
@CatacLstic-i6m environment my arse , go away with your pathetic comments . People like you are the biggest hypocrites when it comes to stuff like this. Go and play with your EV car and don’t forget to rev it
The environment doesn't care if 6 Cars in the world are using Hybrid or not
@ well said , that hypocrite probably uses a plane once a year for his holiday
