The size of WRC and R5 tyres is the same and I doubt there is any rule in France preventing WRC cars using same tyres as R5 cars.
its not about preventing,its just Loeb uses the wrc tyre,which is the same pattern as the dry tyre as he would use at Corsica for example.
r5 cars use a full wet tyre.Thats what they said Loeb and Gryazin.
The difference in the 80s was way bigger - going from Gr B absolute monsters to the Delta HF, Mazda 323 and Audi 100 !!
Ofc WRC27 wont kill the sport, but it'll just kill a bit of the thrill going...
Kankkunen is right. Everybody loved the Group Bs, but they were literally killing the Sport and had to go. Rally 1s are great as cars,but they're figuratively doing the same thing to WRC. And this...
Yup and back then only Lancia had a competitive car. Now there are 5 at the more or less same level, with new Toyota, Prospeed and probably few more private efforts on the horizon.
