New Hyundai WRC boss Abiteboul says he intends to apply F1 techniques to his team at Rally Sweden this weekend.
The former Renault F1 boss is undertaking only his second WRC event as team principal after leading the team at Monte Carlo in January, but the Frenchman has already identified areas for improvement.
"As always working with two timelines in parallel, there is short term and that is immediately, so starting here this weekend we are going to make a few changes here and there in the way we run events," Abiteboul told Motorsport.com. "That is where Formula 1 is impressive with its chain of command and the amount of information that we have to digest in a very little amount of time. I think here it is a little bit different but there are some things we can transfer from F1 to this world so that is what I'm going to do this weekend."It may mean the drivers have bit more engineering duties than media duties.
Ozakinci taking over from the departing Pablo Marcos was a planned move before Abiteboul was installed as team principal. Ozakinci was an observer at Monte Carlo but will be put in command this weekend, although Marcos is on site to oversee the transition.Abiteboul has also confirmed that Julien Moncet, who led the team last year as it de facto team principal, under the deputy team director moniker, will return to head up the powertrain division.
