Exactly and no hybrid also don’t forget + how is the 25 Hyundai performing

So many unknowns, the only thing missing is manufacturer No. 4 and it'll be Mint.

Post Event Conference:https://www.fia.com/news/wrc-forum8-...ess-conference
Since they didn't bother livestreaming it (as they did this year actually), on that note, such a huge day for the WRC & no podium (in Toyota City) celebrations ceremony livestream? I feel like we're being robbed from it every time and it's promotion 101. Imagine seeing Max Verstappen win the championship today in Las-Vegas and then not see the podium celebrations after? What the hell....I honestly hope for the good of our sport & the championship that the WRC gets a new, better promoter before next season arrives.

Regarding that stage 12 incident: https://dirtfish.com/rally/wrc/rally...-van-incident/

They should fine that driver those 50.000 euro.

Who will win next years title will depend on how good the cars are. Kalle had not much resistance in the past, driving a superior car and having only evans and katsuta as rivals.

If hyundai finally gets their shit together, i don't see kalle winning easily. Both tanak and neuville are as good as he is.

I agree with you, maybe only exception is that Neuville and Tänak don’t have that much raw speed anymore as they used to but that’s understandable given the age difference with Kalle.

I definitely consider Neuville and Tänak to be better drivers on tarmac. Kalle has got only one win on tarmac so far, 2022 Croatia

..Which was mainly because of his Friday´s road position

I'd still put my money on Kalle, but it will definitely be closer than 2022 and 2023 with Hyundai not being a pile of junk anymore.
