1. Neuville to leave Hyundai by the end of 2021.
2. Ogier will lose his title, while Toyota will reclaim theirs.
3. Sub 300km rallies will become (unfortunately) a standard with the FIA giving it's official stamp for 2022.
4. Mikkelsen will have a factory WRC seat back by the end of the season.
5. COVID-19 will continue to wrack havoc among the service park (Crews, drivers, teams, and events), will effectively impact next season as well as this season.Only you know your true potential.
