To be honest, being so far away from the cars made me lose my interest.

This sport is so fabulous because it is spectacular to see from a logical and safe close distance. It is not so spectacular to see it …with binoculars. In my opinion, most spectator zones could be 10 meters closer.

There's no need for the recent hammering of Loubet. As they pointed out on commentary the other day, Loubet also brings funding for his M-Sport drive. If he stays in Rally1 next year it wont stop anyone else having a seat if they can do the same. Only an elite driver gets paid to drive for M-Sport in WRC1.

Didn't know that.
I thought it is also managed by the same aliens that ask donations for results and stats.

But from holygrail(FIA) web thry say so.

Andreas Mikkelsen and co-driver Torsten Eriksen are the 2023 WRC2 champions thanks to their Wolf Power Stage victory at Central European Rally on Sunday.

Both are world championships, just different car classes.
If not, why didn't FIA wrote WRC World Champions..

Maybe because it is obvious that there is no bigger championship in the world than that.

Oh g0d..
