On first read that would actually be clever without messing around too much with paralel standings and strange points. I'm not so sure about choosing the start position, also I'm not sure what would happen on tarmac rallies (maybe starting first is better if the road gets dirty) or if it rains.

Not me, this cames from promoter/FIA side. I never liked the scheme of powerstage, which destroyed whole Sunday on WRC races. I understand it is good for promotion, but that is all. When they brought it to ERC, I was really surprised they were not celebrating winner of powerstage on the events. On most of the ERC events, winner of power stage is almost not mentioned, he doesnt receive any cup or prize. Nothing, only points...

I was reading some Italian reports about a test rally to be held in Paraguay, which will be observed by FIA and WRC Promoter, in order to be added to the 2025 calendar. Any news about that?

It looks like something is going on over the pond, since selling early-morning TV coverage is not really breaking into the American market. Having more events at "their" timezones would drastically improve this aspect. But at the same time it would force some events in Europe to be dropped. I'm just thinking about one between Croatia-Poland-Latvia, which can be all of them in case Mexico will be able to get back to the WRC and US rally in Tennessee will go forward.

I think there will be a snow rally in Quebec before anything in the US no matter how much money Chattanooga is going to provide. There's no event to form a basis for a WRC event in Tennessee. The Canadian series doesn't have as much publicity but it's got more money and good organization. The CBC also produces and broadcasts events.

Hopefully Ireland will pull it off, however, Saudi Arabia looks also to be in the cards for next year: https://dirtfish.com/rally/wrc/the-c...usion-in-2025/
Also Paraguay as some rumors have been floating around last week.Only you know your true potential.
This year we rally #ForCraig

Two South American rounds planned. Meanwhile they’re busy dropping North America off this year’s calendar for no good reason…
