Also Bryan Bouffier was not happy, that despite he was third in WRC2, almost nobody heard about it and he was not almost seen anywhere. And for live on final stage, they put only two Skodas...
Sad to hear those drivers are not happy. WRC2 could be very exciting this year, VW withdrawal gave us Camilli and Suninen as works drivers and ERC is not more a real "competitor" (actually this is not good in general but it is in the WRC2 point of view, hope you get this).
It would be a pity if some valuable drivers will not participate.
Yeah, and some people wonder why i.e. Prokop doesn't want to participate in WRC Trophy or even in WRC2. Driving WRC 2017 car is just the best way to be shown on live broadcast stages.Quote:

This also counts for BRR?Quote:

Or even the BRC - I actually don't mind it as a fan, it gives a yardstick to see who steps up to the mark and who is nowhere near.Quote:
