WRC Calendar 2023

[Eli]

So is there really only two tarmac events next season? Croatia and Japan? What a joke that would be.

I'd lose Estonia and Sardinia before losing any more tarmac events. In a 14 round championship you'd at least want 4 tarmac events surely.

To no one's surprise, Rally GB in Northern Ireland won't take place next year as they didn't get the funding: https://www.autosport.com/wrc/news/u...sses/10360922/

"Germany is among the new candidates in the mix to secure a spot on the calendar. The tarmac event made its WRC debut in 2002 and had been mainstay on the schedule, before hosting its last WRC round in 2019."

I was sure Germany out of the running for next year, glad to see it isn't.

This was published just 3 weeks ago so hopefully we do get an August slot for another tarmac event, and if they do at the end decide to have NZ in August, hopefully we'll have the 3rd (real) tarmac event in October like we have for the past 20 odd years? (excluding 2020 of course).
