    However, things could be back to "normal" having elders and multiple seek people aside.

    How did society react back in the 70´s when we had Hong Kong flu? In late 50´s we had Asia flu. Nothing what I remember.

    Thousands dies from smoking, and ordinary flu, not talking about traffic fatalities...

    It´s all about doing the statistic maths, and society can start working again within weeks...

    The problem is the media! You know now that there is only one topic right now on the whole world when there is storms, fires and eartquakes around the world. Many deaths, murders and crashes... I think that back then the media exposure wasn't that powerful so people wasn't that scared or maybe on the other hand people didn't spread it so much by travelling around the whole world.

    Deephouse, I think it's the combination of everything. Cheap travel, media needing to produce loads of click bait and social media.

    But this should be in the pub or the corona thread.
    Never stop dreaming because one day it might happen.

    Cant see it either. WRC isnt like F1 where we can have double/triple headers.

    My opinion on all this has completely changed - I doubt any more motorsport will go ahead this year at all

    Looks difficult to slot them in....possibly make Turkey 1 week later and slot one in between New Zealand and Turkey.

    The WRC gear is still in containers at the port in Mexico ready to leave... but don't know where they'll get sent to!

    Contrary to the postponings of Argentina, Portugal and Sardegna, the organizers of Rally Finland are quite confident they either drive the rally or cancel it, postponing will not happen https://yle.fi/urheilu/3-11276238
