Different titles for the articles which basically say the same things

Dirtfish: EIGHT-TIME WORLD CHAMPION RULES OUT FULL-TIME WRC COMEBACK

Ain't a mind-reader, but tell me what you want.. He wants the title(or 2), especially being in the best team/car.
2022' Monte still hurts him big time

Interesting watching some of the footage from RallyLegend at the weekend in that the two most spectacular cars were "converted" Rally Cross Audis. Yes they were good drivers there to showboat but they made most everything else look pretty pedestrian.

well... RedBull owner (Dietrich) has passed a few hours ago. RIP
I wonder if tis will affect RedBull as a whole, as someone said here.
I know the redbull's promoter/sporting "arms" are kinda "detached" from the main corporation but still... "Same brand". Havent read anything on that, but the Thai guy was already owner of 51% of the company since always, so maybe nothing changes... At the same time, world economy doesnt look so healthy so "TIMMING" may be an effect more than Dietrich's death?

From fia.com

“At Spa-Francorchamps in August, Audi announced it was joining the FIA Formula One World Championship from 2026 as a power unit manufacturer. This announcement was an endorsement of the hard work by all stakeholders to develop those Regulations. We also note that Porsche are still in discussions with Formula 1 teams.”

What about WRC dear FIA????!!!!

What about the WRC? Well it's pretty simple.....it doesn't give enough manufacturers the ROI they want; other series do.

If Tänak goes to Toyota, my guess is that the new topclass/rally1 from 2025 is Rally2 cars.
Its no point having 1,5 team in a world championship.

And, its time to let private tuners have the possibility to homologate new parts, to make those rally2's that is not up there better.
Manufacturers involvement has to end if rally as we know it can survive.

Simple, and sad, as that.
