    I know and I agree, but still feel disapointed. Hope we will see Cherain many more times this year.

    I hope to go to the Wallonie this year, nice rally in perfect scenery, just like Spa! But hopefully with different weather.

    i thought that tyres for national events were faster but less durable than those used in the wrc evets.

    I just read this:
    Pour faire simple et sans entrer dans les détails, il apparaît que Pirelli a bel et bien demandé l’homologation de ce pneu pour les championnats régionaux, sur lequel se réfère celui du BRC, mais que celle-ci n’a pas été formellement actée puisque la FIA n’a pas publié de liste mise à jour en 2017.
    http://www.autonews-magazine.com/che...ies-spa-rally/

    It seems that Pirelli has nicely and properly asked for homologation for this tire for regional championships, where the Belgian Championship makes use of, but the FIA didn't formally agree, since the list isn't put up to date in 2017.

    Really gutted now...

    Yes, appearantly the cause is medicament called Preterax which he used due to high blood pressure. It looks like a silly mistake from him.

    That's not a rule. It depends what each ASN allows. In this case if I understand right these were proper rain tyres while others used ERC single pattern tyres.

    It's conditionally and not effective, so it's not a disaster yet
