    I also like this calendar.
    Are we still certain Japan is going to be a tarmac round?

    Some months ago it was announced that they won't make that 2021 model. They continue with the current Yaris next year and in 2022 is time for new regulations

    Funding issues aside the lack of appetite for the potential of large numbers of spectators being allowed to travel from wherever will put a stop to any plans. Apart from a couple of events held on private airfields or land there have been no rallies in the UK and Ireland for months unlike it would seem in the rest of the world. The road ahead is going to be bumpy at best.
    I'm a bit more optimistic. Once a vaccine is resdy things could improve quite quickly and Rally GB is slated for Aug 2021. N.Ireland is also very keen to take it's chance to get on the WRC at last.

    Hang on, what? They can't do that already?! They're forced to buy the newer parts just to enter?

    When they put the new homologated parts, they can't go back to previous "version".

    For example, you put the new upgraded engine on your car. After that, you can't go back to the old engine.

    Those who have backed moving Rally GB from Wales to Northern Ireland include current WRC points leader Elfyn Evans, nine-time world champion Sebastien Loeb and Irishman Craig Breen.

    "I really think that it needs to be here," said Breen.

    "We definitely have so much to offer: the fans, the environment and more importantly we have the stages - the roads are out of this world."

    Evans + Ogier at the Hemicuda Rally to prepare for Ypres


    The Ypres Rally Belgium, which won its place in the world rally championship this year, to overcome the many cancellations following the Coronavirus health crisis, has special stages which are still unknown for many WRC drivers. To overcome this lack of driving and knowledge of the terrain, Toyota Gazoo Racing has decided to send two of these drivers at the end of the month to the Hemicuda Rally in Koekelare.

    On the weekend of 24-25 October, current WRC driver championship leader Elfyn Evans will be there accompanied by Sébastien Ogier both at the wheel of their respective Toyota Yaris WRCs.
