Because they all fancy themselves as a WRC champion, however unreasonably.
Same reason so many young circuit racers pay fortunes for GP2 and GP3 rather than get paid for big sportscar races.
In one way, it's good; the talent is concentrated and we'll get a proper 'world' championship. The shame is the damage that could be done to the wider sport and the prestige of classic events.
Also, fewer events in the championship and manufacturers subsidising events might make it cheaper, as might your seven events being in western Europe.Last edited by dodge33cymru; 22nd December 2015 at 19:22.

Tarmac rallies are part of the WRC challenge for drivers. And having the Championship in a major European capital city will bring great publicity to the sport there.
