Why keep yammering this because the FIA had to move away from series production manufacturers because those manufacturers don't want to play? It's needless fearmongering.
I said Extreme E-LIKE protos and Dacia Sandrider-LIKE stuff, telling me they can't use exactly the Extreme E protos or exactly the Dakar Dacia Sandrider has no meaning. It's obvious what I mean.
If manufacturers don't want to play they can leave and we can scale rallying down to ERC level. I'm not someone who cares for expanding to USA, India and wherever else to have a "true world championship". I don't care if the sport has to become more amateurish, at least it would still be rallying.

In any case, it's obvious that I have different values than you, so I don't know what you want from me. I'd much rather complain than walk, complaining means signaling a problem, without locating the problem there's never any fixing. I imagine all this is happening also because there has been complaints about low entries in the past years - it's just that I think the solution is worse than the problem. Maybe it won't bring anything, but I still did my part.
