1980 1000 Lakes Rally counted to ERC too: http://ewrc-results.com/final.php?e=...kes-Rally-1980
Why not? Rally will be organized to ERC, so the difference on costs will be less than a completely new event. WRC crews are not so much like in the past. And we can see, f.e. ERC event winner winning WRC2 ;)
And of course Eurosport wouldn't make a problem if their current season-finale becomes the small "side-event" of a WRC-round...
That's stupid idea which is profitable only for event organizer but for nobody else (even for them it must be a nightmare to deal with two promoters in the same time). Think about that again and You must find out why it's nonsense. Here is a small hint for start... "winner takes it all".Quote:

Don't act like there was not enough events to choose from ;)
France is full of amazing roads better than in Alsace region, all there's needed is some financial support. Also, if France would be out, wouldn't it make some place for the Acropolis Rally? ;)Quote:

Holding two tarmac events so close to each other geographically and almost identical in character makes absolutely no sense.
We have enough money to organize a major fia event and this year the money will go for erc,if fia will say to us to organize the rally on the wrc calendar no problem,but the calendar for erc had already been finalized so its imposible for this year,but yes for the future.
Organizing ERC and WRC event requires reasonably different money. I don't know how the situation in Greece is but if You can organize ERC it doesn't automatically mean You can do WRC.
