    Crapito didnt have a clue about performance cars at Ford as anyhting he brought out was wheel scambling front wheel drive he never produced a proper 4WD RS Ford

    Now he also is the same clueless in WRC

    If this stupid shootout comes into WRC that will make it a total joke!!!!

    If I was a viewer unfamiliar with WRC and browsing the TV channels and bump onto a WRC shows, there was no way I was going to like what I see. Their program is totally boring and lacks any true excitement (plenty of fake excitement by commentators...) to attract new spectators. Even I find it hard to watch the sport I love...
    I cant see how all these changes will make something magically click together and attract new spectators.
    Also official site. Last rally couldn't find results on home page but could find radio or stream from service. What's more important, results or something else...

    the downhill spiral started with the brilliant idea (when DR came to power I believe) to restrict press access dramatically for small time journalists. I remember friends in press saying how hard it had become to be accredited. Same for local TV stations, no more access unless big bucks on the table... same for local radios...
    and here we are nowadays with this pseudo producer who dreams of making millions with pay TV who might as well be doing videos on a circus show

    today it's more interesting to follow a rally on a forum like this one where you can find links from dozens of private people on location who post tweets, pics and videos... thank god for internet

    That article is simply unbelievable. Why does Capito get to decide the future of the sport? If this really does go ahead, and I can't believe I am saying this, the WRC will be finished for me.
