everyday getting more stupid this WRC2Pro division, It will be a big mess for the normal audicience to understand and it seems that the brands will nominate some "local" driver in each rally running by a private team

It will get more messy once the season progresses. Pietarinen and maybe Kalle as well will have drives in both WRC2 and WRC2Pro...it should be that a driver can only participate in one series or then only manufacturers collect these "Pro" points.

If it were only the manufacruters it would just be Kalle and Jan vs Gus and Lukasz.
This will probably be the first and final season of WRC2pro. I don't see how separating R5 field like this make any sense, maybe if Toyota already had their R5 built and ready and all the manus would send 2 drivers to every round with their "development drivers" it could make this pro championship interesting but when it's like this it will be a one big mess.

I remember few years ago when we were thinking in IRC/ERC to make different classes for manufacturers and nonmanufacturers. And our result was that it is almost impossible to define who is manufacturer or privateer. Ok, in the past it was Abarth, Proton and Skoda Motorsport, this was clear. But what about Peugeot? They always talks it was not official team, cars were run by Kronos, but in fact it was like manufacturer. Another example last year is Nordgren - he was signed manufacturer driver, but ERC races he was doing only on his name as competitor and with car from Wevers (who was running cars for Veiby and Rovanpera in some WRC events). Is he privateer or manufacturer? What about Kajto in ERC, when he was competing under M-Sport Poland. Manufacturer or privateer?
