Yes, but why only dry tarmac action, none from snow and ice
Good question. In general the higher altitude (where you find snow and ice) the harder it is to get there. So that may be a reason. You can't get to snow and ice from the big acces roads.
World RX lurches from one crisis to the next.
KMS may have committed based on Red Bull being there, but hopefully they can find new sponsors with the Championship getting free live coverage on YT.
