Thierry Neuville says new cost saving rules limiting WRC teams to 21 event test days across the season is “ridiculous” and could result in outfits spending more money. Here's what he said ⬇️
The FIA has imposed a testing reduction for this season with the view to ease the financial pressures on teams as testing is one of the largest expenses during a season.
Last year each manufacturer driver would conduct a test day prior to all European rounds with pre-event testing in the region ahead of the flyway events prohibited. "For me first of all it is ridiculous to reduce the testing to only seven days per driver,” Neuville told Autosport. "I think teams will go and participate in small national rallies around the area which again will be much more expensive and time consuming as well for the drivers and the team.”Photo by: Red Bull Content Poolstopped short of criticising the FIA’s decision, but agree that reduced testing will add to the challenge in 2023.
