So the FIA want national championships to go R2 spec. I'm guessing they've forgotten how badly 2WD went with the BRC not long ago!

Just when hundreds of R5/S2000 cars made the national championships worth watching again...

The route to WRC is simple. You get a shedload of cash and get a WRC2 drive. Compete well for 5 seasons and you stand a chance of becoming a WRC driver....as long as you have more money.

Most of current works drivers got there from national one make cups followed by JWRC/IRC and both Loeb and Ogier went to WRC directly from 2WD.

RACMSA will not fund drivers in the same way that the FFSA does so unless Dave Richards manages to overcome the "blazer" brigade the situation in the UK wont change anytime soon.

[Simmi]

I think it's so vague that it's really not worth worrying about yet.

It's another situation where Mahonen speaks to David Evans about a half-baked thought he's had before anything is really sorted out. This happens countless times a season these days. Nothing is confirmed or clarified and it just creates more confusion and worry than anything else. And often there's a smaller story months later about how that previously mentioned idea aint happening.

Watching the NG Stages highlights it was interesting seeing the gravel to tarmac spec. Hard work for the mechanics mid-rally.

Also showed how bad that dust really was on day one.

Watching Pryce's car let him down and Cronin going off on the same stage... big swing in the Championship in Åhlin's favour.

With those two losing points and Cave not there it has to be Åhlin's to lose now.

Unless Matt Edwards can have a mega result and play his Joker !
