Yes I was serious and was in hope of a serious conversation around possibilities, expectations, limits and magic wands. Maybe you saw that as me defending him. Never mind.

Then sorry! It is actually a really interesting topic to discuss about, what would someone choose to do to improve WRC.

From Ben, I was expecting to improve the sport, attract new manufacturers or at least tame the BS Hyundai has given as couple of years where they promise to leave if they don't get what they want. Talk about the sport more, at least fake it to be better than it is etc. But as it was mentioned before, the only thing he cares about is if someone curses on TV or if someone talks bad about FIA.

Facepalm inducing... and even if we remove the points he got with Rally1 in Estonia, he would still be ahead of the best placed Puma. No excuse for Munster and McErlean to be behind a WRC2 driver.

Munster and McErlean are only in WRC1 / Rally1 Cars due to financial backing. Neither has the proven ability or experience to deserve to be at this level.

But if they weren't paying to be there, M-Sport would be out and there'd be even fewer Rally1 cars for fans to watch.

(Plus on their low points scored, it's easier to make mistakes trying to drive a Rally1 without the required skill and experience).
