Hyundai beefs up its WRC team

Hyundai revealed last year that they’re preparing to take on the World Rally Championship (WRC) from 2014 when a rally car based on the i20 will take to the world rally stage to cast some sport fairy dust on Hyundai’s showroom cars.

Now we learn that Hyundai is beefing up its WRC team as it prepares for a full season of WRC in 2014.
