    See... that's the strategy of the ERC / FIA / Eurosport / whatever idiot that runs this championship - drop all beautiful classic events and replace them with some anonymous rallies that nobody wants to see...
    Their only strategy seems to be who can pay the most £$£$£$£$ gets a round. And you end up with what they've got. A pretty uninspiring series. Serves them right.

    Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

    Acropolis wanted to go to WRC and hoped for it, but no chance for next year against Poland and Turkey. So yes, they will stay in ERC.

    But how do they want to break even when they make two rallies go bankrupt (Ireland and Austria) and another one gets canceled (Estonia)?

    It is not only because of Eurosport. Reasons for finish of Janner and Estonia are mainly about problems in organisation team...

    They broke themselves. They knew what is going on when they overpaid other events to take the place in the calendar.

    Condroz looks like a shoe-in for the final slot on the calendar.

    How likely is it we will end with 9/10 events PLuto?

    The Azorean press has told this night FIA released the ERC calendar today but reading Autosport.cz I see this is not true.

    Some continue to make use of news without mentioning the source like always...

    During today morning should be published draft version of ERC calendar 2017. But I think there will be no big news comparing to calendar published previous week. We will still need to wait until approval from WMSC at the end of November.
