Strategy-wise it's still possibly wide open. One driver may use all the 100kW at low revs and regret it on bambi ice, another may max at 20kW for 5 times as long, hopefully the teams haven't been talking on setting the maps and the drivers won't talk when selecting them. Give it a chance to demonstrably disappoint.

I think the main problem is that there isn't enough space on the tiny rear window.

The value of easy identification is something that needs to be understood. At high speed, very few can identify the nuances that die-hard fans can. For the sake of the general public, make it simpler to link driver-to-vehicle.

If in Doubt, flat out!

The sponsor takes priority on the side of the car (door) these days.

For easy identity each teams driver should have a different colour flash somewhere.

Sounds like Solberg will get the first 3 rallies

I could see Solberg doing the whole season in a rally1 car. With Sordo being 3rd nominated points scorer instead on 4 rallies - at least 2 where there's amazing road position + Spain and 1 other.
