Canada for North America.
US has Rally2/ R5 and R3 cars etc. Invite the FIA cars north of the US border.
Agreed. I also think the promoter and the dimwits in charge should respect the importance of historical events more. If blood/oil money countries like Saudi Arabia and Qatar want to chuck insane money at the WRC to host an event, I guess we have to accept that (like every other sport is doing).
However, those countries have enough finance to pay for all the costs involved for the teams to get there. The promoter should then do what it can to help events like NZ, Argentina etc stay a part of the calendar, rather than making it financially impossible for them to make a yearly rally work. S£udi Ar£bia should be an addition to the championship, not at the expense of a better event or country that can't chuck endless oil money around . But no doubt the Saudi blood money will just line the pockets of the promoters instead etc.
Next year we will have no Argentina, New Zealand, Australia, Spain, no forest rally in the UK, and we still haven't added an American, Canadian or Chinese event yet. At least Greece and Safari are back, along with Japan.
