Any indications that teams will all have at least 3 cars for every round? Will MSport produce some extra cars for "privateers"?

Not all of them are capable of the top class.

Do you also see them slower or is it my fault?

What we have seen can be just first functional tests.

It's clear that Rally1 will be slower than current WRC cars. They will have simpler suspension, transmission and aero.

Will be interesting to see how they jump now since it seems it's mostly front aero that's removed and with those wents as well, Yaris was almost a little boring on the jumps.

Looks like they made a sort of diffuser in the bumper on the Yaris.

At first I also thought that it's mostly front aero, but on second look it's not. The massive rear diffusers get much smaller and also the "hidden ducts" should get removed, which I assume will lead to removal of the "mini diffusers" ahead of rear wheels.

This looks like very early mule. There is basically no aero at all and very old wing. Something like the mid 2016 testing Yaris.
