    Unfortunately all the action was in the first few corners of the first laps on that circuit, which isnt always the case.

    WRX is still a good watch but that's all its supposed to be. It cant and doesnt have anything like the depth of WRC to create lengthy debate and discussion.

    According Swedish television, Ekström is currently looking at missing Höljes round as the Audi bosses doesn't seem to grant him leave for that round.
    This was said before the final though and perhaps Ekström's 3rd straight win might have unlocked things though, atleast one can hope.

    I agree. In the end WRX is just like Folkrace but with expensively cars -> Folkrace plus as Swedish Rally radio reporter Per Johansson once said.
    It's not touring car racing and it's not rallying. It is just some mediocre hybrid of those. Then there is too much crashing into each other, like JKS pushing Loeb out of the way.
    There is also the factor of factory teams. This round 6 out 6 cars were factory team cars. WRX is also very predictable and you know before hand that three of the finalist
    likely will be Ekström, Kristoffersson and Solberg unless they get taken out by someone else.

    I still watch it and mainly because Ekström is participating and doing well. I usually watch it afterwards so that I can skip the heats that doesn't interest me.

    Rallying is, in the end, man and machine vs nature and clock. There isn't much a driver can do about his competitors if they are driving well.
    In Rally, you have to stay focused for much longer stints, while in RX it's just 1.5-2 minutes at the time.
