That's disappointing, you only get to see 4 proper stages and only one new stage. Not sure how easy it is to get any good footage inside the track?

Monza was unworthy of WRC already last year but as an ad hoc solution to an imminent crisis it was acceptable. However a year has passed and we have it here again in a format which is far bellow WRC level. Ending the season again with such a bad joke is doing more damage than good for the sport. By doing this the WRC refutes its own fundaments.

Basically just one more extra normal stage. That is indeed disappointing.
In worst case it might get really boring if it's full dry with all titles decided.
I liked Ypres Sunday with parts of the circuit. But what made it work was that there were also nice roads as parts of these stages. Monza all 3 days 2-3 stages fully on circuit and gravel paths are too much when not necessary.

Even in Italy they must be able to find better stages than on Monza. Last year FIA was happy, due to Covid, and had interessting weather at Monza. We all said it was fun, but if another one, it HAD to be more stages, and fewer SSS inside the fence.
Why do we end up with a repeat from last year, and why did FIA accept?

Good thing we have Catalunya this weekend, but honestly, 250(ish) kms of competitive action?? 100 kilometers of that on the track?? Seriously? They had so much more time to prepare (unlike last year) and this is the best you come up with? The same ACI that gives us each year a different route around the Island of Sardegna? If they (FIA & Promoter which loves to pat their own backs) continue like this, there won't be a championship by the end of this decade, imho.
Only you know your true potential.

Tänak got 20 points closer to Evans, but as the main reason was a bad rally for Evans, I would say that Evans lost 20 points to Tänak, not Tänak gained. The point is, if the other one does not...
