I don't find it really big news that the calendar will be extended, a replacement would be better I guess

Okay so now we have 14 rounds. Let's see if M-Sport and Citroen walk away like they said they would if this happens.

If I read that correctly Rally2 cars will no longer sweep on day two. Bad news for Ogier.

Why do they want to furter limit power of supercharged R2 cars when there is only Fiesta R2T with turbo and that one was hardly the top R2 in 2015 season?

Calendar situation is a real mess.
Manufacturers want China - but all want to keep 13 rounds to ensure budget remains similar.
FIA don't have the balls to axe an event - or rather - Jean Todt can't stomach seeing the French round rightly disappear.
We end up with not only an extra round, but an additional long-haul trip - so the budget goes up markedly for everyone.

How many fans will turn up for Rally China? You'd hope it's more than 1999 - otherwise what's the point in going? Rallying is a 'live' sport rather than a TV sport.
Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

Evans only finished 3rd in the Yaris behind Daniel Cronin & Eddie Doherty. With his experience on Irish roads I'd expect him to beat these guys if he was still using the Polo R5. He doesn't seem...
