Fingers crossed for the event as I'll be heading over for it.
At 28, Thierry Neuville loop his third season with the team Hyundai WRC. It interests many teams, including Citroen and his current employer, and Belgium agreed to discuss his future with our microphone.
"I have not decided for next year. Today there is no decision was taken. And everything is still open. We'll have to wait a little bit. Even for me, c is a phase where the forward wants to overtake me but we must wait and consider everything we are well advanced in negotiations Hopefully, by Spain (note: from 13 to 16 October).., have news. Everyone talks to me about this for five rallies. today, I can announce for nothing is nothing decided, "he detailed Thursday during the Tour de Corse.
At Hyundai, we ask some questions but we opted for the most obvious possible strategy: clarity. "We always negotiate because it wants to keep Thierry. It was the start and three seasons together. I do not know why this train, you have to ask to Thierry. We are optimistic and he knows very well what he can find in our team. for him to take stock and make a decision. I do not know who he still speaks now. on our side, it's very clear, "argued Alain Penasse, the builder's team manager Hyundai.

Back to the topic and Toyoda’s flexibility argument. Amen, free routes and schedules should be the norm, not the copy paste 9 to 5 double loops, but probably that would be a hard way to get WRC into new publics (yes, we need them). Every sport has to have some kind of uniformization; that’s the best way to make them understandable to the public and gain new fans.
Honestly I think we can have competitive rallys with only 250 ss kms in one and a half days, as long we get rid of short running schedules and small loops routes. But besides those sprint lookalike events we must also have 4 or 5 old school long rallys on the WRC: a sort of Grand Slam, with two events in Europe (MC and GB), one in AP (NZ) and one on the Americas (ARG).
For the WRC calendar Turkey has the agreement with FIA as I heard from official and annocement will be at 30th November with final schdule
