Mr Block returns.
No Monster Energy on the livery is very odd, I guess they have cut ties.

The organisers of Britain's World Rally Championship round will now have to rethink the final day of the October event after the governing body declined a planned powerstage using the all-asphalt Great Orme test, which had been extended into the centre of Llandudno.

All asphalt power stage on a gravel event. What could only feel strange about it?

I support of organisers of Wales Rally GB. Anything which is uncommon will help to break sterility, will make the championship more interesting.

I don't really see why if you're giving artificial points out at the end of a stage that the stage itself can't be 'artificial'. Sounds like it could have been a good show for the TV but oh well. The GB route was a moving target last year and it sounds like it will be again this year.
It is interesting how this all played out publicly. But the organisers effectively PR'd themselves into a corner with the press releases.RS Motorsport Media - Follow me on Instagram: rsmotorsportmedia

Today without bigger drama for Rally1, so expecting tomorrow lot of retirements maybe, because there is NEVER rally without issues. Let's see guys, favorizing Ogier for the win probably, depends on...
