More compact??
Though to be fair, they're saying something that has frustrated me for years - lots of liasion/ road kms for very few competitive kms - which is where the 'cloverleaf' format falls down with the repeated stages.
Cloverleaf was just one of David Richard's bad ideas I hope they get rid of it sooner rather than later. It's a product of a time of greed that put the sport in danger for almost a decade.
Reducing the road sections and making the days more compact makes sense for the coverage of the WRC too though.
Days starting at the crack of dawn but having a 3-4 hour break in the middle of the day isnt good for getting or keeping fans watching live. Quick remote services and back to the stages would be better.
The guests & fans at the main SP will just have to enjoy the cars and drivers at the start and end of the days (which wont be so early/late).

USA in 2025 (as previously reported) and China will soon follow after, at least that's the initiative.
Veillas with Loubet.
