Another alternative is to let rally go to an amateur level with almost historic cars. That would also get rid of sillymobile lovers who want to see them "rally" in the US.

So how many and which manufacturers are going to all rounds with 2 cars with Rally2?

As for "sillymobile", you're once again proving you've got no idea what you're talking about.

I don't know, we'd need to ask them. I don't like too much the "all rounds with 2 cars" rule, though. Without it, the long haul events will suffer, but it has always been like that, and now we don't need more of those events. But I guess entry lists would at least be compensated in part with Rally2 locals.

And why is that? It's to poke fun at those... things.

Without long haul events you don't have a World championship - FIA rules.
And without the permanent teams you don't have a commercial championship or promoter.
Without these there's no WRC.

When you said "they could simply go for Rally2 as top class", it sounds like you would have the answers. Here's some answers made public:

M-Sport do nothing without a promoter
Lancia and Skoda don't want permanent participation
Hyundai's future is customer racing
Toyota not interested and you kicked them out.

So it falls to teams as you mentioned being supported by the WRC and event promoters. But the new promoter is not interested in them nor their cars, which is why there is this new kit.

That WRC is dead to you doesn't make you an arsehole, that's fine, walk away and find a new hobby. It's that you think it should be killed of for definite rather than evolving with the times and remain for people who would like it.

Were those drinks good on YRossel's tab? Once again I knew it. Lancia out. The next announcement. Current and only interested person/team/company break out the deal of buying WRC promoter rights.

I kinda hit every nail this year with this predictions.
