Andrea Adamo: “We don’t have dreams”

What is your assessment of the weekend?

I think we lost the race on Friday morning. We were not ready to face the mud after carrying out our tests in the dry. Our engineers then did a great job to make our car more competitive. From there, Thierry almost matched Ott Tänak. The latter wins, because he was the best.

With 40 points behind, will Thierry Neuville still have a chance?

As long as it is mathematically possible, you have to believe in it.

At some point, you must have thought about the Constructors' Championship?

C’est très important pour Hyundai, donc oui nous avons demandé à Thierry de ne pas prendre tous les risques pour inscrire de gros points.

They were even more so since your other crews did not fully meet your expectations...

We needed Andreas to stay in front of Evans, but he didn't do it, and Craig didn't do what we needed at all. However, we remain at the top of the championship and the entire team is focused on this objective. We don't have dreams, but we continue to work so that we have nothing to reproach ourselves for.
