Coverage of WRC2 has been very good on this rally and in Croatia, hope they keep it up for the rest of the year

The "problem" is that Toyota is too good, and there is no competitive field. If we could have all 3 teams with cars to fight for the stage wins and have those "few tenths here or there" leads, it could be a different story.

Years ago with the Group A and then S2000 cars, this type of event looked great.
Pity the FIA cant mandate a RWD diff bias for the current cars. ;)
Aero and long suspension travel are the reason it looks boring. Specially these stupid huge wings
