    Hayden Paddon feels the odds are stacked against him for his World Rally Championship return next month


    The Kiwi driver's eight-year hiatus will come to an end on the icy roads of Monte Carlo, one of the most challenging tests in motorsport.

    As if it wasn't hard enough - Paddon's getting little time to master a new, more powerful, car.



    Paddon will be in Hyundai's third car, which he'll share with two other drivers this season.
