Head of Product Division Executive Vice President of Hyundai Motor Group
Hyundai Motorsport has truly captured the spirit of Hyundai and our N high-performance brand. The successes they have enjoyed over many seasons have been incredible to watch, and the influence on Hyundai’s road vehicles cannot be un-derestimated. We will now focus on transferring that winning feeling onto customers around the world and to enhance their enjoyment of driving Hyundai vehicles.Hyundai Motorsport Team Director
To win a World Championship is the highest career point of anyone involved in motorsport and it’s certainly a great sat-isfaction for everyone working at Hyundai Motorsport, abso-lutely every single person in the company. Never before this season had everyone in the company been so focused to do well, both in our WRC and Customer Racing activities. Each individual has their unique fingerprint on this result.Hyundai Motorsport WRC Driver
We have continuously developed our car throughout the whole season. I had a consistently fast car on all surfaces, which was one of the key things for our success. I also had strong teammates; Andreas finished fourth in the champion-ship, Dani secured important points during the season and having Sébastien was also very helpful. They all gave me such great support in the drivers’ title battle.Hyundai Motorsport WRC Driver
I am really happy to have played a part in this title, and to share it together with the team. We were waiting a bit longer than we would have wanted but this year we have really been in command throughout the season, so it’s a great result, hard fought and well deserved.Hyundai Motorsport WRC Driver
Everyone in the team fully deserves to be crowned manufac-turers’ champions this season. We have had a competitive year, with a versatile and consistently quick car on all surfac-es, strong teamwork and sheer determination to get the job done. Personally, Anders and I had some good results; to finish fourth in the drivers’ championship shows the contribu-tion we have made.Hyundai Motorsport WRC Driver
My role was focused only a specific number of events but I have to say I was impressed by the approach of the team, and the performance of the Hyundai i20 Coupe WRC. Our podium in Chile was a good result for Daniel and myself. More importantly than any individual result, I think the team has shown complete dedication and commitment to secur-ing the title. Credit to them for a fantastic achievement. We can look to 2020 with even greater targets but first we have Rallye du Var next week.Championship Standings
