Maybe new formula for R2 regulations.
2018 Junior WRC champion gets a prize of car (R5 Fiesta for WRC2) and budget I think with free pass and gasoline.
CALENDAR:
-Turkey replace Poland
-Every month gets covered with rally (no big gaps) except december - april & october have 2 rallies.
-Spain & GB swap places.
-Italy have to confirm to held rally on Sardegna
-Croatia will (maybe) have candidate event in 2018 for 2019 round.
SPORTING REG:
-Chicanes are under big questions...
-4 car rule is probably dead.
NO big changes... They have said late in 2016 that 2019 will have some big changes (maybe).
Man I would be happy if they could cover more live stages not only 2 different and 3 total.. With drone tech still not possible or what. And placed cameras in all cars...Last edited by ESTR; 15th November 2017 at 19:55.

On the Ogier subject again, after hearing Colin's kitchen table, I was thinking if Ford are coming back next year, we might see Citroen out by 2019...which tbh would be quite a shame, the FIA needs to make sure what they have now 4(ish) teams in the WRC should stay for the long term.
Only you know your true potential.

4 cars. Or maybe allow again satellite teams, that could get more drivers compete, more teams in the leaderboard.. Abu dhabi will then seeking Hyundai, Toyota or M-Sport again? Citroen are screwed. That cheapstakes will never win again...
