Except some confusion with entries (Team/Driver, only Team/only Driver), WRC 2 is nice option for the crews - and this is my point of view. Opportunity for crews, not an easy life for statistics. Probably smaller team can even make an agreemennt with crews to split this fee into them. Lappi could be an example.

Are they testing old and new car back to back, so they get data and drivers input on same stage with same driver? Same with drivers with different preferences of settings, so they get a car that will work effectivly for most drivimg styles?
Where in Sweden are they testing now?Last edited by Sulland; 15th February 2021 at 16:30.

What Breen’s taken from the newest Rally2 car
He's one of few drivers to have tested the Hyundai i20 N Rally2. What does Craig Breen think of the R5's successor?

As far as I can tell C3 R5 works fine.
One main development driver and a validation test with someone else here and there is pretty much common way of doing things I think. The reason is that few drivers are able to give the engineers an efficient feedback ("I don't like it" really isn't helpful for anything) and a fast driver doesn't mean the same as a good development driver.
With the French cars the issue was usually in the fact that their world used to be somewhat less driver-centric and was more engineering oriented, i.e. they sometimes tend to choose solutions which are much better in theory than they turn to be in the real life with a real guy behind the steering wheel. That doesn't mean it can't work - it often does but such car is usally not very easy and friendly to drive.Last edited by Mirek; 16th February 2021 at 19:09.

Wet conditions. Portuguese Autosport brought something to the table... the WRC2 crews are using a WRC spec tyre that is harder than the spec Meeke and other CPR runners are using.
