Not just a camera, it's three cameras with the transmitter, and after installing they likely need to do a test to see that the camera angles are correct and the transmitter is working. I don't know how much time it takes, but like I said there should be a time slot for this operation that wouldn't be away from the normal service. Normally the cameras are installed and removed outside the rally schedule. Would the scrutineers need to also check that the cameras are installed safe?
And don’t entry fees go to the FIA and not the promoter?
Well, they are all connected. FIA has a deal with the WRC Promoter.
There must be some better solutions that can be arrived at instead of just thinking of excuses all the time.
You can call it an excuse, I call it understanding the reality. Life is happier when you don't complain about everything

It's a bigger problem that WRC2 and WRC3 are separated while the performances are so equal. And like I've said before, if all the drivers would be in the same series, it would be tricky to decide in advance whose car gets the camera (assuming it cannot be moved to another car during the rally).
