World Rallycross Championship a.k.a RALLYX

[saco0o]

WorldRX in trouble, Extreme-E on hold, and WRC in a bit of a crisis........It has to be said, off-road motorsport isn't where it needs to be, and where it should be. Manufacturers simply aren't being drawn to it in big numbers.....

nitrocross, world supercross, mxgp, the split in american sprintcar racing, european autocross, american short course racing
off road motorsport fans cannot catch a break! im also finding weird that promoters and organizers seems to be trying to milk and PR these things like if they were as big as f1, when they have 4 to 20k views on youtube highlights, for example. everyone going for million buck cars and loads of "content' on the internet.... and they all crumble, year after year. i dont understand anything anymore haha
then when i watch something like fia erc, i feel so relaxed and happy. like... i keep returning to this good feeling of watching a 'simpler championship with not much drama, just passionated people doing what they like on a bugdet". i should focus more on this stuff tbh.

looks like the race in china is cancelled. turkey is rumored to host worldRX's season finale on november 9-10.
and some infos on the 2025 calendar: lousada (portugal) and kymiring (new track in finland) will probably be on the calendar. the promoter is going after these other tracks since apparently traditional rx tracks are not into the big fees, evs, small grids and small crowds =/ ..they are probably going to have a street race in the uk, turkey will probably join too.
nyirad, holjes and metter probably to continue too?
lousada, uk street race, kymiring, turkey, holjes, mettet, nyriad. not sure what i think yet, wrx is losing me little by little =[

I can't believe it... Is this real? What took them so long to include this type of ground for a rallycross? Finally

the american championship raced there, same track https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rOnaAjrC0k AND in Calgary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5I0p-iWMTE

but man, what a weird idea. in JANUARY? then the next round will be when? june? may? good luck with that. also, weird time to gather more entries. idk, everything they do with this championship seems like the wrong move. like, EVERY TIME.

I know that rallycross had previously raced on that type of ground, but never in a world championship. The championship exist like 10 years but first time they include it in. That's just like WRC would never held race in Sweden. Both series should always include all terrain type, since the cars are more than capable of driving on it.
