The Super cars round for NZ in 2020 has shifted race circuits because someone did not look at the first circuits rules of operation. The backup circuit still needs a special permit to allow a bigger crowd than is currently allowed to attend the circuit.
Local bureaucracy gets sillier every year in NZ.

I heard an interesting discussion on a recent podcast about Toyota vs Hyundai and their different driver strategies.
Hyundai are going with their 'driver rotation' system again, bringing in a different 3rd driver according to the rally; whereas Toyota are keeping the same 3 drivers on every round.
So who will have advantage this year, especially now that Toyota has an arguably stronger full-time line-up than in 2019 ? Is it better to rotate drivers for their best events, or is using the same driver's on all rounds and their extra seat-time going to pay off ?
For Toyota we have all three drivers with possibility for title challenge (Yes Rovanpera too - I think that he can be up there). Lack of permanent Breen, Sordo, Loeb, Latvala, Katsuta, Greensmith program just made that option easier. And lack of drivers of Mikkelsen, Meeke, Ostberg and Paddon just add another step to the upper places on leaderboard. But on the other hand all three or at least the first ones could clash and make tension in Toyota's camp.
On Hyundai side the case is not any kind of different just the 3rd driver is not always the same so it's only on two guys, but tension could be the same.
But who cares, as long is there battles to the end and not normal Sunday's cruising through stages and then one Suninen who ''pushes'' on the PS.
And huge crowds and all the drivers are all unbelieveable fast so fast they have to use slow motion so that you can see them pr whoooooooooooooooooooosh! Lightning!Quote:
