https://www.dirtfish.com/rally/wrc/c...ules-deadlock/ Interesting information about the next set of regulations for 2022 onwards.
Interesting for a couple of reasons: firstly, the target cost of a complete 2022 car is £500k, not double that, as had been mooted. Secondly, it claims that 2 manufacturers is enough to push a vote through and one may be M-Sport... I thought they weren't classed as a manufacturer?
Interesting, the R5 based unit with close to GRE performance at a third of the cost sounds a sensible approach.
Obviously Msport and Hyundai have such engines available to work from, where as Toyota do not (so far as we know). I presume this is why they sit on the keep GRE side of the fence.
hahahaha thats a good one!

I couldn't find the Rally Argentina thread, so I will post it here.
There are rumours saying that Federico Villagra will drive a fourth Toyota Yaris in Rally Argentina. Local media is reporting:

To me it's a bit strange, as in the recent years Villagra has been driving a Ford Fiesta Maxi in the National Championship, with some support of Ford. He also competed in Dakar a few years ago with Ford and lately in trucks class.
I heard something about Jose Maria Lopez about that car...
