[WRC] News & rumours (part IV) 2016

[AL14]

We are waiting all rally fans in 2018, you capitalist swines must taste freedom first hand, you worthless slaves of your mobiles and gadgets.

It is ok as long as you don't eat puppies like your southern neighbors

[Mirek]

why France is ok then ?

1) The event is already there
2) There was no coup d'état attemp by large part of French army two months a go
3) There were not dozens of thousands of people arrested or fired around the whole county in the last two months
4) There is no civil war in part of the country
5) There is no war in the bordering country moreover with active participation of France

[N.O.T]

All of the above reasons are irrelevant in organizing a rally event (how can a coup attempt, or the replacement of civil servants, or public unrest in the other side of the country have any relevance to organising an event ?)

The main reason is terrorism and France is as much in danger as Turkey is.

[Mirek]

It's not irrelevant when Your own airforce starts bombing Your own state institutions or infrastructure and when Your own army starts driving tanks in the streets. I don't see how a coupist F-16 bombing Ankara airport or parlament is a lesser problem than a suicide bomber blowing himself on the same place. Let's give them time. There is no need to push for an event in Turkey as soon as possible. Why can't it wait a year or two so that we can see if all that shit is nothing but past and won't happen again? WRC has enough other events, doesn't it?

if you are familiar with modern turkish history you will know that coup attempts are a normality (they had 6 or 7 since 1970), some of them were even successful.

I doubt the f-16s would aim for the WRC opening ceremony.

The main problem is terrorism and Turkey is no different than France.

I see the fact that Turkish people are not interested in motorsports a bigger problem than terrorism.

[Rally Power]

Come on guys, enough of politics. We’re all here to share a common passion: Rally!

I'd rather Turkey than Australia for the WRC! And I'm Australian!

[BigWorm]

I'm dreaming of Zlin in the WRC, tricky roads with beautiful scenery. Valais is pretty nice aswell.

But being realistic I would prefer NZ to be back, iconic with fast and flowing stages. Not so sure if I want Turkey back, the 2006 rally was awful.

guys, do NOT feed the troll




otherwise I think it's good news they are not pushing too hard to increase the number of rallies. Last time that happened the championship went into a crisis and several manufacturers retired (not only because of that but it was a factor). Also the 3 car per team rule I find very good, no more Volkswagen 2/Hyundai N nonsense.

Putting lipstick on a Gorilla. That's the effect of a livery change...

Maybe true, but they should at least try. Now it is just shit on shit
