IŽd rather say: go back to the roots. Longer rallies, more stages, more endurance tests. Then the best cars and drivers will be shown. Maybe only 2WD?
Something similar to R5 but with a bigger restrictor could be good... A WRC-car costs way too much, and the 1.6T generation cars are even more expensive than the older 2.0T WRC cars, in contrary what they wanted us to believe... If you want longer rallies with more/longer stages (like the evolution we've seen the last few years before this year), you will need less expensive cars. Only 2WD isn't a real option I think. Some rally-enthusiasts among us would not mind, but to get the global attention you need something that is spectacular, and if possible at least as powerful as the current WRCars...Quote:

Everyone can start the last loop, even after abandon in the firs 'round'. If all stages of this loop are very short the one after the other, you could change from camera from one stage to the other and reverse with splits, ... and less chance of a dead moment. It could become something very interesting with tracking, youtube live, ... and 50% of points still to win!
However, I don't understand why they look at the format if they can't even manage to broadcast 15' of review on a lot more channels!
so we have a rally that driver ''A'' have won most of stages and has a difference of 1,02min from second driver ''B''Quote:

wtf?
Why not to try simple things first, let say change point's system for Power Stage and award top 10 drivers with points. Realistically only 4-5 top driver are capable of scoring PS points, some good but not top drivers finish rally in top 5 but have no chance to get any bonuses, let them fight for points and PS will be more interesting without shout out nonsense.
If they want show, they should put power stage as a SS 1 after qualifing. Also they should award it with 10-8-6-5-4-3-2-1 points. So all drivers just begin the rally and motivation for points is here.
I thought only politicians are idiots...
This idea is so stupid. We (rally fans) can't aprove and permit those guys kill our sport.
I think i'll make some nice t-shirt for the rally germany which says what i think about Capito :vader:
