That would be a total surprise. Alternative energies on the WRC were said to be discussed on a WRC commission meeting earlier in the year, but nothing come out from it. Besides, Smeets recently (last July) made a public request to get hybrids in the series from 2022 (one year earlier than the original 3+3 cycles), but theres was no (public) reaction from other manus to it.
Evans reported it on a bit confusing piece, althouthg Smeets clearly said at same point: "Maybe the answer is to have a two-year cycle next. That would give the current manufacturers another three years, including next season, but it's also enough time to make a change in the regulations”.

Anyway, it’d be quite amazing to see the FIA and the other manus rushing things just to please VW, the same brand that pulled out from the WRC in a hasty way, not showing then to care about the series future.Rally addict since 1982

That day when there´s no sound from turbo engines in WRC, I´ll quit WRC. Promise. Possibly only follow Rally Finland. And that just for friends and environments around Jyväskylä.

It happened in a strange way but Škoda has just officially announced that Jan Kopecký and Pavel Dresler are World Champions!
It seems that they were waiting for closing of entries for Australia to announce that.

At the moment it probably meant, that they couldn`t confirm what one would do with his own money.

Happy for Kopecky, deserved title, he had an amazing year: 1st in WRC2 in every WRC event he took part of and 1st overall in every any other event so far.

Solberg to Toyota would surprise me a lot, what would happen to Pajari in that case?
