Wtf are you talking about lol.

Well but aren't the future Rally1 basically that? Rally2 with safety cell, a bit more powerful and a bit larger aero. So FIA can make a variant with less aero, less tuned engines, limited suspension...

So you propose... the proposed 2027 Rally1 cars?

But WEC did exact opposite of what you described. They opened the class as much as possible while keeping the costs low. It allowed either custom chassis or one of 4 spec chassis, they allowed to use...

In that case we would have *check notes* yeah, Toyota GR Yaris. There is basically no other car that would work as you described.

Don't forget that F1 wants to get rid of him because he literally wants to improve the sport aspect over profits.

I suppose that without a WEC-style BoP, Rally1 will always have an edge thanks to better balance, weight, center of gravity etc.

Making Rally2 the top category with no changes would probably kill the regional customer Rally2 racing - the most vital part of rallying right now.

I can imagine that it will draw more teams like Prodrive, Oreca, Iron Lynx, etc. when now non-manu teams can build their own cars. Also it will open doors for Solberg's project even without Subaru's...

I personally kinda like the Rally2+. Sure, it will probably make WRC2 a bit less competitive and less attractive for some drivers. But #1, if a driver wants to compete for the championship, he need...

It's great news imo. There are still few question marks, but looks like steps to the right direction imo.

No, exactly same as current Rally1 cars.

It's nowhere because it's a low budget Italian production, not because it's a bad film.

It's a pretty good film, not Ford vs Ferrari or Rush level, but it's still better than I expected....

That wouldn't really solve much, as it would make sense to push on Sunday only for drivers who retired before. That wouldn't fix cruising caused by 1 minute or so gaps.

Imo the best system would...

Imo points for a stage win would work only if there were more overall points (let's say up to 50 for the best driver) and more importantly, consistent stage amount for every rally.

I think that a...

So what are these 98 %?

Little off-topic, but there will be TGR livery on Formula 2 grid this season. It's driven by 23' Super Formula and SuperGT champion Ritomo Miyata.

Use road car based engines, use cheaper material for body panel, for suspension and stuff use only parts that everybody can buy instead of purpose built parts... it's not that hard.

Because F1 had no social media essentially before Liberty Media bought the series. Bernie was strongly against them and outright banned them.

So it was not like Drive to Survive boosted the...

The point system would be easily fixed by giving few points for overall standings, even if it was for top3.

Well it seems like one specific manufacturer wants it the most. The same one that wanted Global Race Engine in Rally1, possibly because it's a big obstacle for potential new competitors.

Well without WRC promoter there wouldn't be WorldRX at all

Well in this case I think that F1 is completely irrelevant for this discusion because. The system is completely different to any other motorsport. You don't need to make road cars to be any relevant...

Only Ferrari, Mercedes and Alpine are full manufacturers teams in F1. Red Bull can also be considered as manufacturer team, although they buy engines from Honda (they are not Honda's factory team...

I would say that Haas is a privateer. They buy chassis from Dallara and buys every part possible from Ferrari. They only make the parts that F1 forbids to buy from other teams, often with help from...
