    This one has thinked it like this

    WRC2 = all current WRC2PRO and WRC2 drivers (5+13 cars in Wales)

    WRC3 = all other R5 drivers which are entered to event (now in Wales 7 cars)

    so basically if you drive with R5 you are either WRC2 or WRC3 driver.
    That would be good.

    I dont think it is correct. Most likely it will be only renaming the categories.

    Presumably to compete in future WRC2, crews will need to register a team otherwise they will be in WRC3.

    If most good R5 crews do register a team and compete in WRC2 going forwards this will be a good thing.

    We need to avoid the kind of situation we have on Rally GB where Rovanpera and Kopecky are cruising around 1-2 in WRC2Pro with a 40 minute gap to third place and the top five separated by 1.5 hours.

    Congrats to Kalle

    But he is basically the best of 3 drivers, because only him, Östberg & Greensmith have entered more than 5 races in WRC2pro
    I'm glad they dropped wrc2pro for next year

    I’m not that hopefull. The main WRC2 series is expected to have a larger calendar, becoming more expensive to private drivers. Maybe one or two private teams/drivers (with some kind of manu support) will run run alongside the current works teams in WRC2, but the vast majority of R5 drivers will continue to run separatley (in WRC3).

    This stupid split could be easily avoided with a Privateer Cup inside WRC2...

    Yes, indeed. Almost everybody in this championship finished the season in a podium position
