Good on them; rallying needs to attract proper commercial sponsorship - not handouts from government/local assemblies/ tourist boards. The hosting fee for a WRC round is ridiculously high for a currently lame series.
Many WRC Rounds are funded this way.
The Welsh government financed WRGB for years and now we dont have a UK round after they pulled the funding. Do you think this is good too ?
I don't know if anyone outside of Estonia remembers but there was a press release in the end of 2025 that Rally Estonia together with the promoter will give one young Estonian a chance to compete...
What if he will show up in their Rally2 car (''stock''), won and ashame everyone, WRC27 car, Rally2 Kit car, and the rest of Rally2 cars.
