basically some good old wrc. still like it a lot!
Agree! Nice looking cars, bit more spectacular than Rally2, but not to much!
Wrc2 plus would be good move!
If manufacturers can provide some update kit for allready running (rally2) cars,than we would see a field of 20 cars in top class each rally!
Local hero's in the mix for top spots would spice up things.
Just interesant read in some resources (just google Extreme E vs Extreme H): Extreme E will be replaced with Extreme H...hydrogen. This might be some kind of first signal-bird of some tides in the top promoter fields. The guy who created Extreme E is the same who built Formula E. And Siemens is going to be involved. Something is brewing.
Interesting indeed. They expect Extreme E in its current form to go away when the hydrogen-powered cars arrive. They say that the new "Extreme H" championship is coming in 2025:

I wouldn't be surprised at this point if they're reading our discussions at this point: https://dirtfish.com/rally/wrc/how-l...-over-the-wrc/
maybe, maybe not, it's not hard for anyone to see that there are fewer and fewer top cars at the start and the idea of Rally2+ or going to Rally2 is not new, in fac it's quite a few years old. I can understand the manufacturer's view that they invested in this spaceframe chassis and want to keep it. Also for MSport if you look at the car they need to make into a rally car I suppose Rally2 is no-go, the Fiesta doesn't exist anymore and the Puma seems to be not ideal, the spaceframe solves this. The concept of Rally1- or Rally1.5 or whatever is coming up more and more. We'll see what happens, for me the current situation, with 8 top cars and stupid points system si not compelling at all.
