    A far as Hungarians go, Botka is almost 100% sure, Érdi might switch to R5 and so some rounds, and I think Klausz will stay in JERC. Others may pop up for the odd round too.

    Scattolon with R5. Potentially quite many drivers/cars from CZ but not much sure yet.

    Calendar looks fine, except the islands. At least, Liepaja will get some party at season end.
    About ignoring the western europe - maybe it's other way around? Does germany/france/spain really need ERC round on mainland?
    For now, seems that they don't.
    Winter rallies in north of scandinavia are not intrested in ERC because of money and also, they can't accomodate such large events, I think.
    Ok, maybe winter rally in Estonia could be possible, but winters now are a bit too much of a chance game thus far south. Don't think we need another rally like Liepaja was last year.
    Someone proposed zone system again? Well, don't really think it's worth the hassle. Even some 15 years ago, all the top crews choose rallies with rate20, eventually making championship race consist of the same 8-10 rallies. Rate 2 or 5 rallies, were more of a prestige deal (look, we're ERC event!), not real attraction for competitors.

    Do you remember Marco Cavigioli?

    I'm sure he will add some spice to the championship

    Giacomo Scattolon is twice younger than Cavigioli so he can try his chance in the new ERC Junior Under-28 category:

    The girl should be Tamara Molinaro, she has Opel, Red Bull and BRR backing, and I think she's talented too, so it seems a good deal.

    I disagree with you. Rally Islas canarias (Gran Canaria), called some years ago Rally El Corte Inglés is a classic inside the European Rally Championship, in fact it had coefficient 20 since 90´s.

    In its 40 editions disputed have participated many of the best pilots of the world.

    I like all three island events a lot, they are great events. But for ERC it is easily too expensive (time and money) to have so many island events...
