I don't find it really big news that the calendar will be extended, a replacement would be better I guess
Okay so now we have 14 rounds. Let's see if M-Sport and Citroen walk away like they said they would if this happens.
Citroën wants China :) China is in.
If I read that correctly Rally2 cars will no longer sweep on day two. Bad news for Ogier.Quote:

Calendar situation is a real mess.
Manufacturers want China - but all want to keep 13 rounds to ensure budget remains similar.
FIA don't have the balls to axe an event - or rather - Jean Todt can't stomach seeing the French round rightly disappear.
We end up with not only an extra round, but an additional long-haul trip - so the budget goes up markedly for everyone.
How many fans will turn up for Rally China? You'd hope it's more than 1999 - otherwise what's the point in going? Rallying is a 'live' sport rather than a TV sport.
