    Toyota still not decided on class for first customer car.
    Wobbeling btw Rally2 and 3.

    Might be smarter to go for rally3, get experience and then make a rally2 car in a few years.

    Fierce competition in rally2, and possibility to do the same mistake as Hyundai, to put too little development into the rally2, and flop.
    Less possibility for that in rally3.

    Agree Toyota should do the 100K Euro Rally 3 first. There is such a push on at the moment with the auto-makers and regulations that Rally2 could be like the TCR circuit racers that could quickly lose status to the emerging E-TCR.

    I would expect a Rally E2 category is not too far away, maybe with electric drive motors and battery with an on board charging petrol motor.

    It is already on the cards for the next rally2 regulations that they will use a mild hybrid system.

    It is mostly consensual along national competitors that that will be the way to go.

    Sometimes I think it looks out of proportion because the Rally4 Fiesta looks alright and the rear wing on the Rally3 upsets that balance. And then sometimes I think it doesn’t look to bad, especially here sliding through a gravel bend (on tarmac wheels!)

    What does everyone else think?

    I like the roof wing on the fiesta R3.

    What are the comments from the drivers of the rally3 Fiestas?
    Are they happy, or are there areas they have mentioned that need to be improved?
