In my opinion this namechange is logic, and mirrors the single seater naming convention.
Formula 1 is the top dog, and Rally1 is the same.

Formula 1, also called F1 for short, and in a few years Rally1 will be called R1. But for now (since FIA messed up some years ago, make WRC a trademark, but calling the top class cars the same) the top class car will go under the long title name, Rally1.

The Fia Rally Pyramid is at last logic in its naming convention for the car classes!

My bet: It will take a year or two before we all have gotten used to it, and we will not miss the old way of naming rally car classes!
