That's little surprising, for me Croatia in EA WRC is disappointing and feels rather dull. It's partially due to too clean and smooth tarmac and partially due to Bliznec-Pila being weird choice for...

I would like for day 1 to change cleaning driver after every stage.

Stage 1: NEU EVA FOU OGI TAN KAT MIK MUN

Stage 2: EVA FOU OGI TAN KAT MIK MUN and NEU moved to back of WRC1 list

Stage 3:...

No one has whole picture, even Mikkelsen. And it's not courtroom, opinion that Mikkelsen's driving is disappointing so far isn't as ridiculous as you painted it.

But we also have post-saturday points reset. I would say friday's issues matter less this year for overall point gain than in previous seasons.

I doubt AI driving is future of motorsport lol. Chess engines are much better than homo sapiens for years but people still prefer to watch Carlsen vs Nakamura than Stockfish vs AlphaZero

It's wishful thinking but maybe Kalle just reached his peak level very early and will not improve past that too much while guys like Solberg, Sesks and Pajari will keep improving and catch up to him...

1 Neuville 2 Ogier 3 Evans 4 Tanak 5 Fourmaux 6 Mikkelsen 7 Katsuta 8 Lindholm Backa

It's other way around for me, I followed WRC semi-regularly in 2010s but discovering some rally games, then Red Bull TV get me hooked on more and I decided to subscribe to Rally.tv last year
...

Not sure if potentially losing Toyota, Hyundai and M-Sport would be better than finding some common ground. WRC keeping hybrids for 2025 and 2026 is not death sentence.

91% is quite specific lol.

Sesks is good driver with Rally1 potential. It will be interesting to see how good result he will get with combination of his experience on Latvian gravel and his lack...

For Kenya:

27 Rovanpera
18 Katsuta
15 Neuville
15 Fourmaux
13 Evans
8 Tanak
8 Greensmith
6 Solberg

Sure, I was just mocking "rallying is not for you" argument that was used by AndyRAC.

While I like changes reduced cruising on sundays, I dislike issue with points for rally winner and hope WRC...

It doesn't need to be flat out all the time but reducing cruising is not exactly bad thing.

Anyway, drivers know how new system works, if they want better point score, they need to push during...

"WRC Promoter had been working towards a 14-event schedule for 2024, but event director Simon Larkin has cited the need to bring more Rally1 cars into the championship as the reason for sticking with...

New points system seems to make sundays more interesting but we have also another rally where winning whole thing is undervalued in points.

Points - Driver (position in rally):

20 - Rovanpera...

WEC has different characteristics, they want lower classes teams to be present on all rounds while WRC is fine with WRC2 drivers usually take part in only 7 rounds.

WRC survived even seasons like...

I doubt it has anything with his F1 background. He is saying what Hyundai wants him to say. Same as Thierry and Kalle for Toyota. I guess current manufacturers don't enjoy their lack of influence on...

Similar approach exists to some extent, Poland-Latvia-Finland this year, Sardegna-Cyprus-Greece-Turkey in 2000s. It's good for teams logistics, but for hosts having another WRC rally two weeks...

When was last time driver finish 10 rallies in a row without problem?

I enjoyed it so far but I would enjoy it more if rally.tv let me watch replays of stages I missed. Terrible streaming.

Neuville started day 4th and is now 2nd. Evans was 2nd and is now 5th. I...

Depends what you're looking for. For people thirsty for wheel-to-wheel action and seeing as much event as possible when attending live, rally would be one of most boring motorsports to follow.

Wales lost spot similar way to Corsica and Deutschland and Poland/Latvia/Estonia are cannibalizing each other.

I don't think having local WRC rally will significantly spike up interest in both...

I follow news about calendar rather regularly and didn't see anything about potential of Rally Deutschland coming back. If Central Europe will lose spot in calendar, Ireland seems to be most...

1 Rovanpera 2 Neuville 3 Evans 4 Tanak 5 Katsuta 6 Fourmaux 7 Lappi 8 Solberg Backa

Sardegna is doing rather well. Maybe difference is that stages aren't spread across whole island like it usually was in Tour De Corse.

Anyway, with so many decent canditates to host the rally in...
