However, being a rallyfan since the 60´s for sure there has been dirty tricks.
But - today we find it done openly and more aggresive than I ever seen before. And that development is not good. Also ruins the spirit of sportmanship I always thought rallying was.
Remember like father like sons, meaning cheating and dodging might become even more aggresive on National basis, affecting the group of amateur drivers still wanting to follow the rules...
I don´t know. Maybe a bit naive.
You're not alone. Such things also lower the value of the rallies they enter, in terms of the "real competition".

So after 11 rounds we have 10 wins for Toyota and 1 for Hyundai. If they win the remaining 3 rallies, they could even beat the VW record of 2014 and 2015, when they won 12 out of 13 rounds.
