No, but it surprises me that FIA keep putting up rallies where it cost teams a fortune to go to.
I understand that they would like to move into new markets, but I am not sure it gains the sport as such, compared to running the classic rallies...

I don't think this has that much to do with FIA.

China is an important emerging car market, but especially to put it at the end of the season when the titles may be wrapped up already is stupid. What's more, the private teams can't really afford it. I hope Brazil and Safari next year will be different.
Anyhow, let's not worry about that but look foward to Monte which has the potential to be the greatest IRC Rally yet
