Petter is planning to do all rounds, but he is not secured of the necessary budegt, so he is probarly not acting as a manufacturer team, because if he fails in doing the last rallies, it will cost him money due to FIA sanctions. So Petter will only do the WRc as an individual driverQuote:

As far as I know there are also direct flights from Amsterdam, London, Frankfurt, Madrid and Barcelona. But dont fly Iberia, horrible service!Quote:

Nice to see Novikov back but that's all about positives :(
Yes, 25 only. The WRC is in the middle of a rebuilding process, and the future with Mini, Hyundai, VW, etc. looks bright, so we're not TOO concerned, but we would certainly like a few more.
I'm more worried about the lack of interest from privateers. WRC teams HAVE to participate.Quote:

WRC and Rally in general are becoming more and more an European sport, and that's something I really wouldn't like to see.
Most of the drivers, Teams, and Manufacters associated to the Sport are European, or atleast they are focusing on European Market, and that I think is closing the championship.
Most drivers choose European rounds because they're cheaper, if they live in Europe of course, the locals from Mexico and Argentina for example dont even bother to participate in their home rally because they wont be able to compete with European top drivers since they simply wont be there.
