The only thing in WRC that got attraction is where events would be held. Apparently countries are fighting for spots. Funny, right?
What if no one is actually buying the WRC promoter's rights?
The WRC is unstable for many years already, but seems that 2027 could be even worse, and FIA is not making it any easier.
Jon did mention one thing, that FIA should beg manufacturers on their knees to promote their brand in WRC, and especially mention Subaru, since they are announcing new STi models. Chinese brands, those who are already here... Also discussing so long and still not finalize things yet is like they are spinning in circles with no real outcome.
What is worrying is not that the WRC could sragnate for year or a two. But to bring some challenge until the series will fix itself (because FIA apparently can't and will never do it), so even Toyota will not consider leaving it.

Rich Millener said on the DF podcast that the Rally2 Fiesta is getting another upgrade. He sees it as still competitive for 2026. Romet Jürgenson was testing the upgraded car at Greystoke.
