This guy is such a bullshitter. He's shocked! Shocked, I say! By spectator behavior that was considered extremely tame just a decade ago. Like honestly, give me a break.

Kicking Poland out of the WRC is obviously a scheme to get another rally in its place that is favored for commercial reasons. I don't know which, but odds are it will be a huge mistake.

Poland has actual rally fans. Every time you treat the fans like crap, you weaken the sport. Every time you make the show worse in exchange for some marginal improvement in safety, you weaken the sport. And make no mistake, this is a sport that is extremely weak right now. It's getting better, but still in critical shape.

There's some unbelievable arrogance among the teams, the promoter, and the FIA rally people. They must be under the impression that they're running F1. But they aren't.
