Makes it very problematic for Hyundai (and easy for Toyota with Katsuta). Hyundai would want to use Mikkelsen or Breen in the main team for Sweden/Finland/GB, this way they can't without removing the blocking option on other rallies.
TGR can use Latvala also, Loeb and Sordo can´t drive same events...
so rule suites better for Toyota.
