At the same time, I find Cyril's attitude pretty childish ... In no sport are the players making the rules.

I understand that Huyndai may retire if changes are called for. However if this is really in the balance, then it is only a matter of time before they call it a day. Given all the critics, I would very much doubt they would stick around when the new regs kick in ...

Long story short, if I would be the FIA i would not listen to such bully arguments and stick to what I believe is best for the sport (whatever it is). My five cents : As someone suggested, keep Rally1 cars as is until the end of the homogation cycle, with no hybrids and benefit from the weight saving by replacing all the expensive carbon aero kits. This may cut costs enough to bring in private cars. Don' touch Rally2 which is very healthy as is. And "force" manus to enter 4 cars each, including one for young guns.
