    If we're talking money spent on RX, I can say with huge confidence that Peugeot have spent the most money and resource, closely followed by Audi and GCK. PSRX are a distant 4th. The VW and Hyundai...

    Nothing written, but the paddock is buzzing with rumours about it.

    As both you and Jan say, the net spend possibly isn't too much due to the incredible reach Ken Block has. However the Ford bosses...

    This year in the WRC the competition has been incredible - but although I prefer rallying, the last few WRC seasons have not been as exciting as World RX has been! I agree that World RX has limited...

    Based on speed Kristoffersson could easily have won the event - set the fastest lap of the weekend and without issues at the start he could have easily challenged Mattias. Looks like it could be a...

    The rain was incredible - the final race in Q2, the cars were basically on ice, losing 40s and more to the early runners!

    Not that I know of, but anecdotally as a follower of both WRX and WRC I see much more interest and buzz in WRX right now. And not just from fans - but manufacturers too!

    The tourists might not compete at the top (e.g. JV in WRX too) but it brings press interest, media interest and more fans to the sport. I know some people are desperate for WRC to stay in the dark...

    3 years ago RX was a bit of a 'cult' sport, suddenly it's almost reaching the mainstream - much more than WRC does. All of that with some good strategy from the people up top and an exciting...

    You keep saying 'ridicule' and the like, but Ekstrom just hooked it up on one event but has been mediocre at other times despite having a superior car.
