Lack of competition killed the interest to follow the rally and the thread. Few Rally1 cars plus attrition means there was no story of this rally. And WRC2 puncture lottery was the joke of the year.

People talk about formats and gimmicks to get attention to WRC, i think it's the lack of competition. If there is nothing to play for why should someone follow? The cars are cool but i can watch some good fan videos tomorrow in my lunch break.
