[WRC] News & rumours (part II)

[alleskids]

what ?? I think the rally was banned for safety/organisational reasons.

Did the FIA/WRC ban Rallye Monte Carlo? I thought Monte Carlo left WRC, not the other way around.

[Mirek]

I thought the split was mostly down to FIA rule which ordered central service park and three days Fri-Sun around it.

[Barreis]

I thought it was 1 million US$ entry fee.

Think the same like Mirek, WRC want every rallies this and this to do, but AMC didn't want to do that I think..

[N.O.T]

But it definately wasn't because a superally driver finished 2nd....

No, but obviously they never liked this rule.

[alleskids]

My point was, Rallye Monte Carlo escaped from the uniform rules of WRC-FIA and when they did come back, ACM dictated the rules for the new WRC. It takes an important rally organisation to get the FIA taking some action

[Motorsportfun]

ACM has a big power in FIA's decisions. Also about its F1 Grand Prix!

Lucky lucky boys! Anyone recommend a good body shop???

yes bit of a shame, it was a promo day paddon was running in his old mitsi. apprarently suspension broke and sent the thing down a cliff face. luckily the passenger was not hurt, ride of a lifetime! paddon has a broken collarbone and is on his way to england for talks with an un named wrc team...
