Why? Because the are scared. Ford are playing neutral, but we all know they are scared too.
Current Team point system guarantees collection of points on each event, as long as driver reaches the finish line.
More WRC2017 cars = less chances to get points.
Yes, they are under huge pressure to deliver, but this is behavior of a looser.
Again, why let competition run on a different rules? Citroen and Hyundai are fully committed to the WRC while VW pulled out and now wants to have special permit to compete. While it is good for spectators it is not equal to the committed teams. Scared is quite wrong word for this. It all should happen on equal basis. You can put this scared card back in to your pocket and put yourself in the position of Hyundai and Citroen management. Quite logical decision from them and I'm not surprised. Imagine Nandan and Matton substantiate their decision letting VW in to the board of Citroen and Hyundai. They would be fired immediately.
