Before I got rally.tv, I mostly check highlights on redbull.tv than on youtube. Not sure if it's that good comparision. Also WRC has twice as many rounds as WEC.
WRC youtube channel has more subscibers than WEC.
Looking at reddit, WRC is smaller than WEC, looking at instagram, WRC is bigger than WEC. It's quite hard to say.
At the end of day, WRC has potential to gain new fans and manus, similarly as WEC is doing that. If they will be able to realize that potential in next few years, is different question.Last edited by Backa; 13th September 2024 at 16:32.

this is weird... "hyundai will rumored to be run by american team chip ganassi using a oreca chassis in wec"
like, its just hyundai money and stickers? is that cheaper?
man im really thinking wrc should just go to spec cars and allowing manufacturers to change the "nose" of the car (headlights & front grill desing). the hybrid is already spec, the roll cage is basically spec (because they need to follow tight guidelines), the engines are already super tight on the construction.
just get someone to build a full simpler spec car and sell them to the teams and drivers, its going to be cheaper.
make it a crossoverISH thing since thats what the manufacturers want now. the puma is one of the coolest cars on the planet right now (tho the new car dont need all that exagerated [AWESOME] look with all the aerokit).

hmmm but if wrc had only 8 round like wec, we would still get the same 80k average vs their 300k anyway.
or reverse: if wec had 14 round (like wrc), they'd probably get the same 300k average in all of them
like F1 or MotoGP have the same average of views for all of their 24 race season, nascar for their 36 races, or sprintcar have for their +80 race per season
yeah, social media numbers are weird, i honestly dont know how to work with that. motoGP was bigger than F1 up until 2022 or so, if you added twitter/fb/insta/youtube. i remember counting them all every year.

No, as I said it will be an Oreca tub with a Hyundai engine (roadcar based or prototype) with a spec mgu and Hyundai/Oreca designed bodywork (with some Genesis styling cues) and suspension.
All of them are currently run by third parties, only Toyota and Peugeot with their Hypercars are run inhouse factory teams (maybe Ferrari kind of as well with AF Corse).

Discontinued in Europe but the Hyundai i20N lives on in Australia:

Strange when surely Europe was it's best market.

Reducing their ranges, offer only EV and SUVs, ''forcing'' that those people will buy 3x more expensier cars. I will laugh if all they do will lose money and scratch their bright heads why.

So Hayden Paddon won ERC for the second year. In the second half of this season he and his team finally got the Hyundai working, a feat which apparently eluded the WRT, and looked dominant. And now he's going back to lower-level rallying, or so I've read.
This seems like a missed opportunity for Hyundai WRT, surely they could put him and his support crew into WRC2 next year.

Kris Meeke also clinch Portuguese title with that car. They should put both drivers in WRC2 championship two years ago.. Right now the lack of tarmac rallies in WRC isn't enough to give the car the opportunity to fight for the title, since they are aiming on that ground only. Shame, I really hope they could really try with both of them, because it seems they are the only ones who are capable of drive that car and fight properly.
