You talking about money? Do you know we have just sold Emerald Coast? It's just one of biggest Qatar Holding (QIA-controlled company, Qatar Investment Authority) properties - and is near Olbia! They're planning/building a monster real-estate development...Quote:

I'm sorry, but what do you mean by "my" Wales?
my suggestion is Safari Rally Kenya. i would like to have that again back..pretty good challenge for the drivers and machines
I don't think the Safari Rally would work unless it was restructured to fit the current format. Looking at some maps of the country, there's some good stuff around Kisumu on the shores of Lake Victoria.
I'm afraid that at least for the next couple of years the WRC's calendar won't be to our liking.
In answer, to the question posed by this thread, regrettably I have to suggeest New Zealand (to the 2016 WRC Calendar!) because it looks likely that rally will be on the sidelines until at least then. Too bad!
Rally Australia remains positive on three-year WRC bid - Speedcafe
The upside is that the Australian round this year at last looks like it will bring back more of the 'magic' absent since the event moved from Perth.
Pffff I rate rally NZ higher then the current Coffs Harbour... Maybe because its a classic
Also wondering what the "magic" is what 'Rally Hokkaido' is talking about. 6x the same show-stage isn't the way to do it... Also I will never get used to the idea that you are allowed to see only one or 2 places a stage... Part of the "magic" in rallying for me, is finding your own place, and discover something special...
speaking of hokkaido where's rally japan gone??? we haven't seen it in the calendar since septmeber 2010, shame.
