Andersson conceded on Rally Sweden that he doesn’t have the full budget to enter any more WRC rallies this season.
My dream WRC tarmac rally would be the Manx with night stages! Just a dream though.
If rally Ireland returns, it has to lose al the political BS and promotiing the country craic, needs to be just about the rally. How about just giving these rallies WRC status

I wish FIA start to show some professionalism, when give different countries the rallies, they should first check that they have economic resourses and long term comitment, so that the events can develope to good rallies, this "lets play rally" is pathetic, organiser should think twice, so they dont take water over their head.
If they can pay entry fee that's it..
Jean Todt is kicking out old enimies ? :)
Chairman of the Commission manufacturers Gabrielle Cadringer suddenly left all positions on the international automobile federation FIA. It is yet another unpleasant facts when trying to shape the FIA regulations for competition and ROAD RACE car racing. The International Automobile Federation's comment on this fact.
Gabrielle Cadringer came to the attention especially at the beginning of the eighties, when drawn up the basic rules for group B, A and N, which is still one of the basic stones in automobile competitions. In the past ten years was also responsible for regulations for category cars S2000.

They want Monte Carlo to be first. "Rally Sweden returns as round two for next year, following a successful event earlier this month. The other rallies listed are: Rally Mexico, Rally Portugal, Abu Dhabi Rally, Rally Argentina, Rally Italy (running in Sardinia again, but with a mainland start - reckoned to be in Rome), Rally of Turkey, Rally Finland, Rally Germany, Rally Australia, Rally France, Catalunya Rally, and Rally GB."
Looks good to me. Shame that Ireland and Poland are out, although Poland is a reserve with Norway, which could open if Monte Carlo stay in the IRC.
