For me, I like the challenge of it, but I’m not sure it works very well with the sprint format events and the modern equipment that isn’t designed for this. If they built ‘safari’ spec cars and ran over long stages it would make sense to me, but I can’t see that happening on cost grounds.
I am delighted to see Greece back on the calendar, but I do wonder with the modern format and tyre regs, how many cars will run out of tyres to get back to service.
