Wow

So,

Jeddah Base
Day in the Mountains
Day in a Volcano region
Day of 'formed' sandy roads in the desert.

Set to be the last of 14 rounds for 5 years at least.

That's something at least.

I wonder which event gets booted off to make room for saudis. I don't think they will expand the calendar just yet.

who can they boot? Canary will replace Poland, Estonia for Latvia, Croatia stays, I think only Chile needs to sign for next year. Unless with all the monkey business in Kenya after this year will see the door but I doubt they would like to add another region to get rid of another.

is a new location in Italia confirmed to replace Sardegna already? otherwise, theres your "exchange", maybe?

Maybe Central Europe Rally is at risk? Especially if Sardegna will be replaced by Tarmac rally like Roma Capitale. WRC never had calendar with 6 tarmac rallies if I am not mistaken.

Or maybe influx of cash from Saudis finally allow WRC to successfully organize 14-event season.

Lovely.

Another motorsport-event in a place I would be happily jailed, flogged, whatever just for being alive. ffs.
