Remember most WRC events (and even National events) these days tend to repeat stages to get the mileage without finding tons of roads, so you could do that, only design the roads so that they can show wear after cars have been through them, like RBR does and you can repeat stages. That way you can make longer rallies, which is something I'd like to see, 6 stages really isn't enough time to get into a rally.
Another thing, especially for people like me who don't have internet at home, is to make big fields of AI for rallies, so like 50 or more entries, in various classes. Like Rally Championship and games like RAC Rally before it, it would be fun to make your way back up the leaderboard after losing time, etc. It just means a bigger database of AI people and more to calculate.
A third thing is classic WRC seasons, like 1998, etc where you can play against the likes of McRae, Sainz, Burns, Makinen, Kankkunen, etc.
Lastly, in the career mode (good in WRC 2010, but not brilliant), have you come up through national championships to get to the top. Now lets say you have 9 stages per country in the WRC calendar, keeping in mind that although this is 117 stages you could have short superspecial stages. Anyway, point is 9 stages repeated is 18 stages, which is a great length for a WRC event. Now you can have a national championship based in each country in the WRC, so a British championship, Swedish championship, French, Spainish, Argentine, etc. That's 13 national championships you can have, each can have 3 stages from the WRC event, repeated meaning each national event is 6 stages long. Now you could repeat that again, for the other stages and have a 3 round national championship containing only the 9 stages you made for the WRC round.
Next step after that is to make a European championship, consisting of the European rounds of the WRC calendar, using 6 of the stages per rally repeated, meaning 12 stages per event and 9 rounds making a European championship. Next step is the WRC itself. But remember at all these levels you can have individual classes too, so you could start out doing the nationals in a R2 car or something and progress to N4/S2000, then either get an Academy invite or do the European championship in a S2000 or R3 or something, moving to the JWRC, SWRC and eventually doing the WRC itself.
