So Estonia is out for Latvia and Poland comes in for some reason.... Why not just have Latvia take the June date and give Estonia a reprive???

Rally Estonia have admitted they don’t have the funding for 2024.

As far as I know Argentina can only run in the usual location in March/April because other months are too dry and there's a risk of wildfires. There's a different region also bidding in case the April slot (today occupied by Croatia) doesn't free up, but in either case there's not much information about the verdict, just speculation.

I wonder if Safari is at the end of the month or at the beginning. Rally sweden takes place 15-18 february and usually theres at least a monthly brake after that. Which puts rally Kenya right at the start of a monsoon season.

If they’re not adding anything new and simply replacing Mexico with Poland, I’d wish they’d mix up the calendar, maybe bring back Finland to October, it was a unique event to watch and I’d love if the organisers, once every few years would move it to the autumn slot.
Only you know your true potential.

As far as I know the economy in Argentina is not doing great at the moment, while Chile is looking better, could buget also be an issue?
Maybe this is wrong info but I was under the impression Chile fits well in the calendar because they can ship those parts directly to Japan.
Meeke had a big gap to Rossel after stage 3 (20 sec) at stage 4 had a puncture and now the gap to Rossel is just 2 sec Gryazin strangely slow,anybody now why?...
