Come on Andy, WEC doesn’t cover anything, because it’s all about one race (LM) and they’re competing for the 3rd category win; IMSA is a 2nd level series in the US; WRX or GRX are overvalued by rally fans, as they’re nothing more than niche competitions. Besides NASCAR (mandatory for US manus), honestly I don’t see Ford covering properly their motorsport bases.

For sure we all feel that WRC should be promoted in a more effective way, but if we remain overcritical about that we won’t be able to see any positive development. ’17 cars may not be the ultimate answer to WRC problems, but they seem to be a promising tool to help fixing those problems. We just need to be a bit more optimistic…and keep fingers crossed!
