PS: I don't share Your opinion about Mexico and Argentina either. IMHO where there is general lack of power every bit of better power curve must be a reasonable advantage. Just have a look on R5 times in comparison to WRC in both Argentina and Mexico. Those cars have been always incredibly slow compared to WRC ones while on other events they have been mostly way closer.
Mirek, simple question: in those R5 cars which are so much slower in MEX and AR, who is driving? I mean long ways to go, is it all the same drivers in Mexico and Argentina as back in European events?

(cars don't drive themselves...maybe---if its different drivers, the best "locally" aren't as fast..Maybe only "richer" Euro can afford the trip??)
