This sounds like a lot of petrolhead logic. It feels like I'm talking to walls, but I'm repeating my points which I've already said in previous posts.
- Developing, renting and selling Rally2 cars is business of the racing departments, which doesn't require budget from the manufacturer, like running a whole WRC season would
- The drivers in WRC2 teams are mostly bringing budget in, not being paid by the manufacturer (not sure about Řstberg though)
- Skoda and Citroen just quit their factory teams in rallying. What makes you believe they would return?
- I don't believe that the manufacturers want to put money in marketing their ICE cars in rallying
- Even if we slap on hybrid systems onto the Rally2 cars, it's a problem for the manufacturers that the street models of these cars are mostly not hybrid.
Btw, let me ask you the other way around: do you really believe that it's viable to start Rally1 Hybrids with only 2 manus involved?
Doubt it, he is Martins The Sesks 😁
