Well hopefully they reduce the circuit to 1 or even half-day max, cause if it doesn't rain it would be pretty boring.

Yep. Even something like at the end of each loop in the mountains, run a stage at the circuit before midday & evening service. Two stages like that a day.
But can imagine they will want to spend a full day at the circuit & more (especially if fans will be in attendance and tickets need sold).
They have great stages in the mountains.

bureaucracy and money..
However, plans to return to Japan were abandoned when the promoter came under pressure to retain the Tour de Corse.

«*We are determined to do our best in order to overcome this Covid-19 pandemic and successfully be able to hold the WRC in Japan in 2022. I pray for the safety of all.”
A replacement event will be held to conclude the 2022 WRC season which will be confirmed shortly.
=> Probably a mistake in bold (2021 instead of 2022) but sounds like Monza Rallye will replace Japan

Also possibility they will push Monza to December and try to do second Monte Carlo. Maybe with studs allowed.
