Because they want an event that attracts about 250/300k spectators, 50k only during the Ceremonial Start :)

No. Because they want money from organisers...

Awesome! Is that only for Tamrazov or for Saliuk too, and the announced livery with Eurosport on it will never come. Seems Ukranians in that team have big money, in Mille Miglia starting with a slogan and now again for the next rally?

This design was planned for Miglia, but there were no time to make it...

Nice design and slogan. Have one of the Ukranians swtiched to the Fabia now?

Only for Mille Miglia.

Any comments on differences btw Ford and Skoda from him ?

Is Alberto Hevia still the driver of Skoda Spain or is he "private" driver now ?

That the way it is-the same for everybody. Drivers have to think and not yust ''push the pedal to the metal''. Rally was never about straight pushing, you have to make same tactics and sometimes even go-off the throttle. The scenery in Sicily will be awesome.
But I agree partly with you-if you blow the engine, then you can say by-by to Ypres......
