And he's seriously suggesting all that is put together for the beginning of 2021, while we're already in November and containers should soon be on ships going to NZ if they want to be there in time...
We know that Colin loves Australia and NZ, he visits many local events usually. He's also often expressed his love for Coffs Harbour based Rally Australia, touting it as the best round of the WRC season.Last edited by AnttiL; 17th November 2020 at 11:21.

He's spent too long at stage ends and not in the real world.

I saw veiby at ypres last year. His best stage result was 8th, behind local gentleman drivers.
He's not even second class behind the best drivers. He's third class at best, somewhere between the faster gentleman drivers.
I don't see why anyone would want to put him in a wrc car.

Yep, bringing Canarias to the WRC would certainly be better than having Monza as the series finale, but in face of Latvia’s event rejection one can wonder if there wasn’t a clash between WRC and ERC promoters.
Anyway, the main error was to allow Ypres moving to late November, when it was already clear that the second Covid wave was starting; without that reckless move we would have the WRC finished by now, with all champs decided in seven proper events.Rally addict since 1982

By keeping Ypres in its original date would have meant canceling of Turkey and having Sardegna in its late October slot, which could have also meant cancellation...
It's easy to say afterwards how it should have been done. The WRC calendar is not a simple jigsaw puzzle.

Veiby has won WRC2 once, it was in Poland 2017. He often makes outrageously fast stage wins but is unable to retain this pace throughout a rally and/or crashes.
One explanation could be that Veiby and Gryazin (who both brought a big budget to their WRC2 programs) had a deal that included a prize drive for the one with more WRC2 points at the end of the season.
