[WRC] News & rumours (part IV) 2016

[Eli]

I dont think event security will be a problem i think organization can deal with that somehow. Turkey doesn't have any big rally event since 2011? At the moment they have an ERT event, upgrading that to an WRC event is a big step. So, i think the real question is, are they ready Organization wise ( Stewards etc..)?

I doubt Turkey will have a WRC event next year, for them having a ERC event first would be also a good option.

It would be nice to have a rough gravel event and going to a beautiful country especially coast side but at the end FIA makes the decision so we will see.

since 2010, shame Greece didn't get the slot, or even Japan instead of China.

Yeah they are all right thats why I told Eurpe and Middle East line. Turkey stay between Europe toIraq and Syria problems and make a bumper to all terror attacks. Even Russians are at Syria which has no meaing and also we are dealing with second taliban as ISID because we are the only border democratic country try to stop them.

This is not a proper place to talk about politics and terrorism really.

I said nothing about politics. I only listed some raw facts. This forum is a place to discuss where to hold an WRC event and I just like some other people don't agree to hold it in Turkey as we don't see it as a safe option and as You can see there are quite serious arguments for our position.

Safety/danger perception has two levels. One is what the media and governments say and the other is what's it really like on the spot. I'll take Iran as an example. Iran hasn't been portrayed exactly as a friendly country but being there you'll understand how wrong the whole mass media portrayal is.

Turkey has as many problems with attacks as Western Europe. The only thing that isn't exactly good is the political situation in Turkey.

The world isn't exactly normal at the moment anywhere. Lots of populism, authoritarian regimes and the seemingly never ending conflicts.

Jordan is safe too!!! But again this is from my perspective!! Media can make things worse than what actually they are.. but this is another topic

But, I would agree it is good to avoid those hot spots all together for the safety of the public. No one knows what might happen!

Of course Turkey will be safe. Unless they host the event in some area like kurdistan etc...
I don't think that would be a problem. As other said, France would be dangerous as well.
