@ Jarek -Yes it does, if you believe in inclusiveness. Britons are criticised for not wanting to be 'good europeans'. Not including CoI in the ERC would prove what many suspect, British membership of european institutions is a one way street. The key problem you fail to mention is it was too easy for continent-based competitors to opt out of entering CoI. All events counting for the total points would make some (maybe not enough) difference.
As for Pluto's point about Belgian drivers going abroad - this usually means a max 500km drive and no ferry trip, or else they'd go to Ireland (which was abroad from Belgium last time I looked;))
I am not blaming the organisers, because it is certainly a matter of budget, but I expect Azores to have a better entry that this and Azores is at least as bad logistically...
But they have live tv and they fund the boat for the mainland competitors to make it over.
Acores is better logistically because they are helping the crews a lot. Ok, it takes much more time (for team from Czech it means to be three weeks out of home), but organisers are helping with costs for ferry and plane a lot.Quote:

Have I missed something? Why is Ketomaa testing here?
Guys, thank you very much for all your comments. I'd like to make it clear that I'm not against Circuit of Ireland in ERC, but I'm strongly against the stupid idea of "2 rallies in one". Anyway, I wish you all a great rally! :)
