    They'll just rename Power Stage to Power Saving.
    Never stop dreaming because one day it might happen.

    Some kind of combination of who is the fastest and has the lowest kWh consumption would be cool and would perhaps push manufacturers to make more efficient cars instead of pushing larger and larger batteries in humongous SUV-s.

    Maybe we'll see it in future Sunday stages before the power stage. I don't think WRC will ever be used to push road-technology, but it is a great proving ground.

    I can certainly see minimal energy-consumption forms of motorsport being big in the future. It could even form part of the Group A/N based series that cost-conscious members of Motorsport Forums and RallyTwit want that will attract hundreds of new manufacturers. I'm in if anybody else is.

    I see Dirtfish managed to still bring up Adamo. Wheatley seems a good fit though so did predecessors and despite some good changes in recent years, the top championship is still just 3 teams. We will see.

    One wishes him luck - he surely can't do a worse job than Matton; and as for Adamo.....Dirtfish's obsession is unhealthy.....

    (Anybody who follows MX GP will have noticed a rider with the same name)

    Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???
