WRC mainclass from 2027

[Humber]

Could the 2027 WRC end up like 1981. Rothmans turning up with a determined driver (Vatanen), a proven car (the Escort Mk2) and sufficient sponsorship to do enough rounds.

What could 2027 be like? Determined driver (with a private non-manufacturer sponsor) turns up with a proven Rally2 and takes enough points to win the driver's title?

2027 - Hyundai pulls out, Toyota drivers with less powerful cars at the front lose time at gravel rallies, which lets others through on the leaderboard.

What if they have to 'do wrc' in order to sell 'WRC2027'? It's been like this for 30 years.

what u mean? lots of rally2/3/4 car manufacturers don't do wrc, they just sell to clients.
