    Can he? I mean, if Monza is in place of Japan, and is required on the same level. Is he not required to compete in WRC2 at Monza?

    too late for Mikkelsen I think. he spent all the effort and time(+ a lot of budget) driving R5 in WRC2 and ERC..

    If he did not compete in Japan (or Kenya), the Championship would not be valid the way it was first set up. So I believe he has to compete in Monza, in WRC2, to keep the Championship. Anybody who knows?

    I thought I was reading Silly Season 2022 but all here recently was that bulls*it why Toyota lost manufacturer title in 2020.

    That title was lost because of clever tactics by Hyundai.

    Can he gain anything?
    Lets say he win at Monza, it's still no seats available.

    No. He can't gain anything in Monza with Fiesta.
    There will be no seat for Mikkelsen in Toyota or Hyundai. Not now or in the future IMO. Only option is Puma Rally1 but that needs his own budget.

    The need to do a non-europe event was for the team championship only, I believe.

    not the drivers

    WRC Art 6.4.3 shows '6 of the 7 rallies in which they were entered' so this should mean that he has to 'enter' Monza.

    Note that under JWRC App VIII Art 3.2.2 it specifically says 'entered & started' rather than just 'entered' so maybe for WRC2 it only requires an entry.

    He didn't spend any budget.

    Anyway something is wrong when he in Rally2 this year beats:
    Breen (3x), Sordo (2x), Fourmaux (3x) and Solberg (2x) and wins two titles, yet they all get a seat and he doesn't.
