Hyundai Motorsport has officially announced Juho Hänninen from Finland as one of the test drivers for 2013 WRC Championship. Test drivers are an essential part of the development programme of the team. The drivers must be with all the experience and necessary skills in order to develop a reliable and competitive car in a short period of time.
Juho Hänninen has won the 2010 Intercontinental Rally Challenge, FIA Super 2000 World Rally Championship as well as the FIA European Rally Championship in 2011 and 2012. So, there is no doubt he will be a valuable asset for the team for the new season in 2014 FIA World Rally Championship. Very soon Hyundai Motorsport will announce the second test driver and the official drivers for the 2014 season will be announced at the end of 2013.
