The FIA World Rally Commission is thinking of replacing the Junior WRC into a
1 brand Academy. Four companies have submitted their offers for the supply of cars . Observers assume that this is M -Sport, Ralliart Italy , Honda and Mazda. The vehicles will come in six European rallies used.
This newly created Academy is to replace the Star Driver program, which will end this year , as financier Pirelli no longer supports the series. The FIA hopes that Academy will costs 50 percent of the Junior World Cup.

People need to realize that this is not the 80s 90s....the sport evolves and it needs to go with the flow....and if you are one of those romantic kind of rally guys get your girlfriend and go watch a sunset and leave WRC alone...or watch local village rally series.

According to some russian sources from the Baja Aragon (Spanish round of the FIA International Cup for Cross-Country Bajas), which is currently being held in Saragoza, the boss of X-Raid BMW Sven Quandt made an offer to Marcus Gronholm to drive for the team in the upcoming Dakar marathon...
PS: I know that Marcus has always said he's not interested in such a dangerous event as Dakar, but still...Martin Holmes about Sebastien Loeb: "Misery is being beaten when you just can't understand why".

not my kind of sport.. Could'nt care less.. I think Marcus is still to young and quick for it..
Never give up...
Quite! Ocon showed why he is not in a Mercedes seat. Magnussen showed his F1 days is numbered. Perez is not looking great at the moment either. The 2026 cars woulD race better in Monaco l think.
