I guess it's more about his age. He's not a long term prospect anymore.

Sorry, that is BS.
How old is sordo?

Thats right, well over 40.

He is not a WDC prospect any more, but potentially a pretty good and safe pointscoring 2. or 3. driver in any team, and in atleast 3-4 years from now.

A young talent should be in the 4th car anyway, well of the pressure of scoring points in the manu's championship.

Less crashprone than most of the drivers too, and still some good speed.

Didn't know that.
I thought it is also managed by the same aliens that ask donations for results and stats.

But from holygrail(FIA) web thry say so.

AND


Both are world championships, just different car classes.
If not, why didn't FIA wrote WRC World Champions..

Maybe because it is obvious that there is no bigger championship in the world than that.

Oh g0d..

I remember being told WRC2 has to mean World Rally Championship 2, as in "wHat DO YoU ThINk The lETtErs mEaN...". Now "World" has to be explicitly used.

Well, I have to say, having read the International Sporting Code, statutes of the FIA, General competition rules, general rally regs, WRC regs, etc, because I find it all interesting and enjoy the conversation surrounding that, and having it here with likeminded folk; I'm going to ignore it all.

Thanks for clearing this up and putting me right. Both are world championships, just different car classes.

Then care again to explain why in WRC sporting regulations, on FIA website and in FIA Ceremony bulletin there is category World Rally Championship for Drivers, and then WRC2 Championship for Drivers? So why they don't call it WRC Championship? There is it World Rally Championship 2 Championship? And why in W2RC there is writen World Rally Raid Championship at all categories and not something like W2RC-T4 Championship?

It's not bullshit. It's how it is.

Sordo is in WRC because he has been there continuously for almost two decades. If Sordo was out for couple of years in WRC2, nobody would have signed him again either.

Rally1 must be boring like hell when after getting title done there are few comments about it but the main topic is how "legit" is the "world champion" title for WRC2 category

We can heat it up more - how legit for average spectator are WRC2 win, when there is faster guy in the same car and gets RC2 win?

I guess now we wait to find out if Kalle has the motivation to continue next year, and to what extent.

That should give something to talk about other than wording about WRC2!

I have to ask again, on what basis are you doubting his motivation? I don't see it written or reported anywhere else.
