If the feedback on the previous car adjustments was still within Anderson's understanding,
then this talk of cross-tyre configuration completely exceeded his comprehension.
The reason is simple; this tyre configuration for WRC only appeared in 2018 and 2019, and Chen Xiangbei mentioning it now meant it was eight or nine years ahead of its time!
It must be noted that in traditional understanding of this era, no matter how you match tyre types with soft and hard compounds, the four tyres would only be changed to the same type.
It's like in F1, where no one changes the front wheels to soft tyres while changing the rear wheels to hard tyres.
However, compared to Formula One's paved surfaces, the tyre configuration scheme for rally races has become more complex due to increasingly complicated road surface environments, making a single tyre type inadequate.
