That is one interpretation of what is being said. Press releases can be read different ways. I don't pretend to know what's going on but I read this as the support the event HAD ensured it was given a place on the calendar for '16/'17. Not that the events themselves will run.

I'm sure it will get sorted out.

Ahhh... thank you pantealex

Just an example of why the WRC is important to NZ and why NZ is important to the WRC

There you go. Rally Aus will be in the 2016/17 Calendar but in future it'll be moved else where

Very polite, I'm sure, but what is your source about Kubica? You can't be surprised or annoyed by people asking you to substantiate rumors, especially with your track record.

Thanks for posting the link. I'd suggest people just read it as the synopsis you gave doesn't really reflect what is actually said in the piece.
