About WRC in 2025/2026..
Technical

-The current Rally1 car will continue as the WRC’s flagship vehicle in both 2025 and 2026 but with modifications to reduce cost and performance. These include the removal of the plug-in hybrid unit, with the performance compensated by a reduction in overall weight, and a reduction in the air restrictor and aerodynamics.
*So no more HY system and only ICE in 2025 and 2026?

Rally2 cars will continue in their current form for the duration of their homologation.....
However, Rally2 cars competing on WRC events from 2025 and beyond will have an option to run with a WRC kit consisting of a larger restrictor, a larger exhaust, an optional paddle shift gearbox and a rear wing with the objective of reducing the performance gap between Rally1 and Rally2 cars.
* something like RRC was years ago between WRC and R5?

The power output will be targeted at 330hp, with the engine performance controlled by a reference torque curve for all cars. Engine and transmission will be cost-capped and technology limited to Rally2 equivalence. Aerodynamic efficiency will be limited along with a top speed restriction to reduce development and cost.
*not buffed up rally2, but downgraded rally1 then..?

The cost per car will be capped at €400,000 and WRC manufacturers will be required to make their cars available for sale directly from the finish parc fermé of a WRC event.
* so teams MUST put their cars on sale after every rally and.. there is a possibility they have to make new cars for every rally..?
How does it fit in cost reducing? A lot of new staff to keep making new cars..?
A bit confusing to me at the moment..

400k seems quite optimistic plan, as rally2 cars are 250k+ at the moment.

At the earliest opportunity, an electric category will be introduced into the WRC with the FIA technical department charged with establishing suitable technical regulations that could utilise the new Rally1 safety cell and achieve parity of performance with Rally1 cars running on sustainable fuel.
