Hmm, most successful sports are paid by the TV companies..... WRC has to pay to put it on TV......Quote:

Potential for the FIA to continue to be the promoter of the WRC like they are now.
With the loss of Nokia, their ability doesn't seem to be up to much. Future not looking so rosy.
Mouton&co. should give their chairs.
Most effective approach is take it in-house at the FIA and control it centrally. Then any new contract for supporting sponsors, timing systems etc is directly with the FIA.
This BS needs to stop before they completely destroy this sport.
Does anyone know, is nokia wrc app working in future?
There's also a story doing the rounds that Hyundai are returning to the WRC:
Hyundai will VW angreifen*:: rallye-magazin.de
I should add I have no idea whether there is any truth in this, but it does seem more believable than the Lancia rumours...
Great news! Hopefully they'll stay for a little bit longer this time. And finally they'll make it to the podium ;)Quote:
