Tanak is leaving Hyundai and moving to M-Sport Ford in 2023

Rumors of Ott Tanak’s return to M-Sport Ford in WRC 2023 are intensifying: the Estonian is also signed with Hyundai for the new season, but both sides have indicated they are evaluating their options.

Rumors that Ott Tanak could be in the Ford Puma Rally1 bucket next year have intensified in recent days as his relationship with Hyundai appears to be falling apart – particularly after the team’s decision not to allow the Estonian to take Thierry Neville this year to pursue victory Rally Acropolis.

This may also have been the last straw between the two sides, which has steadily decreased in recent months. Several times this year, the Estonian has not hesitated to accuse the team of the poor reliability of the i20 N Rally1 in the first half of the season, but also of organizational problems.

Also at the Ypres Rally he openly stated that the current team manager Julien Moncet was not the right man for the position, which was held by Andrea Adamo until last year. And then came the order from Hyundai Motorsport President Shin Kim for the team’s trio of drivers – Neville, Tanak and Danny Sordo – not to duel at the end of the Acropolis Rally in order to maintain the team’s historic first 1-2-3 in the ensure WRC .

This decision was met with dissatisfaction from Tanak, which he did not hide, as the Estonian says he should have won instead of Neville – being closer in points to Toyota’s championship leader Kale Rovanpera for – otherwise limited – hopes of victory this year’s title.

At the end of the Acropolis, when asked if he would continue driving for Hyundai next year, Tanak responded with the enigmatic “We’ll see next year,” while Monche hinted that the team was considering its driver options before 2023.

Monche, who explained that after the Ypres rally “Even if a driver has a contract, he can quit, like in football,” after the Acropolis he emphasized: “We have a contract (with Tanak) and we will talk to him about the future like we do with all our drivers. It’s normal. Of course we will announce it when our driver team for 2023 becomes official. We will View all.” Options for the year and I can’t say much more.”

Should Tanak leave Hyundai, his only viable option is a return to M-Sport – as Toyota has reportedly decided to leave its driver line-up unchanged for next year. Tanak has described a return to M-Sport as “rumours” but the truth is that Malcolm Wilson needs a driver with Tanak’s experience and skills for the new season.

The Cumbria team had Craig Breen (with whom he has a contract until 2023), Gus Greensmith and Adrien Furmaux on the full schedule this year, while Sebastien Loeb and Pierre-Louis Loubet share a fourth Puma Rally1.

Wilson, the owner of M-Sport, said that apart from Breen, the team has all other options open for 2023 drivers: “After so many years in this sport I have to say that finding a top rider is my priority. We don’t have any concrete plans for the new year yet, so everything is open.” the British recently pointed out.

A king was born on Boxing Day: Amorim’s United fielded four defenders for the first time

There was only one Premier League game, held on Friday December 26th, the traditional Boxing Day, but it was a very good match for Manchester United fans who have experienced so much disappointment of late. A 1-0 win against Newcastle was a relief for the Old Trafford side.

But it was more than that. Ruben Amorim, unwilling to change his philosophy despite his poor results, played with four players in defense for the first time at United.

United have changed in other ways as well. They won with a possession rate of 33.4%, the lowest of any Red Devils team this season. This was also the lowest since January 2023, when they scored 29.4 per cent in the win over Manchester City. And United had nine shots on goal compared to 16 for the Magpies.

Patrick Dorg’s first goal as a Manchester United player and his second “clean sheet” of the season opened the door to an unpretty but essential victory for Amorim’s side. Amorim admitted it was one of his “most satisfying” wins since taking charge of United. “We are suffering together. If we always have this spirit, we will win many games,” added the Portuguese coach. And all this happened without United football’s most influential player, Bruno Fernandes, missing out due to injury. Amorim replaced the Portuguese midfielder with Uruguayan Manuel Ugarte.
