    Could be a decider for the championship if a crew is unlucky, for instance with punctures, or gearbox.

    Why not have a quick service in the field?

    So, do you still agree? Would you like to see the M-Sport star Ogier complete the day with no 1-2 gears and possibly retire?

    Against the regulations, which have been made to cut costs.

    I guess FIA could come up with a rule to allow remote servicing with limited amount of mechanics and limited amount of parts they are allowed to take with them, otherwise it would become an arms race and soon the teams would be building remote service parks to compete with each other and the costs going up the skies...

    Not having service on saturday ain't gonna save any money. It can only ruin somebodys rally and result. And if one tries to limp thru the stages with a damaged car(gearbox, diffs or whatever), the final cost may be higher, coz maybe it will be impossible to repair the part.
