Belgian star, Thierry Neuville, has 'crashed hard' in the first WRC test since the virus lockdown.
The Hyundai driver was testing in Finland overnight when he crashed in a high-speed section.
The crew is okay, but the same could not be said for the car.
Neuville is currently sitting third in the standings after mixed results on the opening three events.

Whilst in lockdown, the Hyundai team developed some new aerodynamic modifications which could be seen on the i20 WRC.
New changes to the rear of the car showed the team is still firmly focused on the present despite the upcoming 2021 season and the new 2022 regulations.
The Hyundai mechanics have a long night ahead of them if they are to complete the second day of the test, as planned, on Tuesday.
