Liam Doran showed some potential of the Prodrive Renault Megane.
Johan K again better than the rest.

There might be a hybrid or full electric 911 down the line. But it doesn't matter. Porsche is still very very serious about full electric and Porsche as a brand is a lot more than just the 911, thankfully. And I say that as a long time enthusiast that daily drives a 991 C4 GTS, far north of the arctic circle.
Just like Citroen ruined WRC for 10 years? Come on. They play by the rules, it's just that Petter and his team play better than all the others.
Too bad Liam is an idiot like before. He should have returned with a big "sorry for being an ass, I'm lucky to be back and will try hard to be a better man and driver and hopefully some fans will find me deserving of cheering on". Instead he was as unlikable as before. His comment to those who asked if he was ready to behave and be back without trouble: Look at Q3.
Then again, not sure if he was lucky to be back or just that his dads pockets are deep enough to get him back...

Is it fair that almost on all events JK is put into the Q1 with bunch of last ones on grid?? While the others (Bakkerud, Ekstrom, Solberg, Loeb, Hansens...) race against each other. Don't know how starting grid for Q1 works and is stupid and not fair by any means.
And money they said that they put enormous cash into the game without the limit...
Audi quitting means that probably Ekstrom will soon be out that means no Audis at all at the start line and again Bakkerud without the seat.
With PSA strict budgets I don't think that they will put all of their resources in RX just to be always second...
No that's not ruining the sport at all. And now tell me which manu is there?? Ford quitting before was too late.
Anoucement that e-rules is put for 2021 is far more worrying. I think manus is not that stupid even if they anounced that 9 are interested. I'm pretty sure that this number is reduced now to 3. If there is any interest at all...

As I understand it VW didn’t put loads of money into WRX, they put in the effort for WRC and the WRX team was fortunate to pick up the pieces and take on a very well developed car. So all the RX team had to do was carry out the alterations to make it work for the new format. Both the Peugeot and Audi were built specifically as RX cars so as an RX team have probably had similar, if not more, money put to them. That’s just the nature of building a car from ground up rather than making adjustments to an already quick car.
You clearly don’t know enough about the sport to be commenting though, which is highlighted by the fact you don’t understand the Q1 draw. Maybe go away and learn something about WRX before you spout off on a forum.

I don't think VW put in "loads" compared to their WRC program but, from what I understand, they have invested more than the other manufacturers.
They obviously have a lot of knowledge about the chassis and already had a head start on the engine as well (having supplied the engine for the GRC Beetle).
The three works teams are all close, but Kristoffersson seems to be driving flawlessly at the moment."If in doubt... flat out!"

Easy to see why WorldRX is getting so expensive. Prodrive renault - 1000 hours for chassis preparation - multiply out the hourly wages of the techs. Carbon fibre, radiator in the back. 4 way suspension. Adjustable diffs, multiple roll bars etc.

Almost all Finn's since Paavo Nurmi who are fast in their sport have been called "Flying", particularly the 1960's rally drivers, but I was actually thinking of "Flying Finnish" - the timing line at...
What's the first thing to come to...
