    Btw, I think Katsuta will do better in Yaris WRC than most think.
    His win ratio with Yaris is 100% (2/2)
    Is there any other drivers who have more than 1 start with modern WRC and only 1st places?

    He will be faster than R5 but can he keep car in road is another thing...

    I think he will be (if he manage to stay out of the trouble or at least on the road) somewhere between Tidemand, and other ocassional drivers. I can only think of being faster than Bertelli, Qassimi, Block. (Well not so many start these kind of cars)

    According to this article this car won't be ready before 2021:

    There is a similar situation with Arai's son, Hiroki. He got dropped and competes in European Championship now. But even in ERC he is not fast enough.

    Just a lot of unknowns.

    We have no idea what the new rules "explanation" actually means and how big modifications are needed.

    Also if modifications are needed can they be made without jokers? (I'd guess so, but how does that fit in the rules?)
    EDIT: If they don't need a joker, Citroen could use this opportunity to put on a new/bigger wing without needing a joker.


    Will the "changed" cars get a new homologation (isn't that very expensive process?) or how will that be adressed?

    If you get less rear downforce with the changes you might need modifications in other areas which might need quite a few jokers. Or you might sacrifice some top speed with a new rear wing that has same downforce but more drag.

    Anyway if teams are actually doing changes my guess is we won't see any testing of them before start of september.

    Guys is here anybody who knows if this is true. By some sources I have found out that Turkey could be out of next year's calendar instead of Germany? (glad that they are not droping another asphalt event).

    I saw something similar in a few places round the internet, if I remember correctly they (Rally Turkey organizers) have until the middle of this month to decide whether they can or want to participate in next year's calendar.
    Only you know your true potential.
