Given I'll be at two of them I'm happy with that programme for Abbring. Will be interesting to see how he goes.

Fingers crossed for Abbring. I think he can achieve something in future but he must do good in these rallies.

First taste of 2016.
Australia confirmed, so I guess that's NZ still out.
If they're bringing in at least one new event and keeping the same number, I guess that means that France, GB, Germany or Portugal out....

“We also have exciting proposals on the table from countries not currently on the calendar and discussions have started with a view to bringing at least one, and perhaps two, of those events onto next year’s calendar."... Hoping for Acropolis and New-Zealand.

A pity NZ still out, the agreement between Australia and NZ to alternate their rally was fair for me, but it seems Australia has more friends.
Glad to see my Sardinia confirmed. Every year we say it's the last year but then it is still there.
Wondering who will be the new rounds. They talked about China coming in 2016, let's see. I think that the one that will lose his spot will be France or Portugal.

Think it will be France. This years rally at Corse is probably just a one off. France has Monte too.

Ideally France should have a spot, even if ther is Monte. It's the land where were born the world champions of the last 11 years, soon 12, and a country where rally has an important role. But I think FIA is not happy about how things has been made this year with the Rallye de Corse and the abandon of Alsace. Not to say that they don't like islands rallys.

I'm amazed by how much pressure some of you guys put on the young or inexperienced drivers when you consider how much time and patience guys like Hirvonen and Latvala were given.

51 cars separated by 10 secs! no car is more than 0.4 behind the car ahead, or something like that. cool
