Michel Nandan and Hyundai Motorsport separate

A la base du retour de Hyundai en Championnat du Monde des Rallyes en 2014, michel nandan has played a major role in the Korean team's progress since his arrival in 2013, with three consecutive second places in the Manufacturers' Championship since 2016.

However, the former resident of Peugeot Sport and the Korean brand announced this Wednesday the end of their common adventure, just over three weeks from Rally Montecarlo.

It is Andrew Adam, until now responsible for the Customer Racing activity, who will take on the role of director of the rally team, thus overseeing the entire sporting commitment of Hyundai, present in addition to the WRC in WTCR.

Under the leadership of Michel Nandan, Hyundai Motorsport achieved ten victories in the World Championship, notably with Thierry Neuville and Hayden Paddon. It was also under the direction of Michel Nandan that the brand announced the arrival for 2019 of Sébastien Loeb for six rallies.
