[WRC] News & Rumours 2020

[Fast Eddie WRC]

2020 is a year like no other, and so having a WRC rally like no other is just part of the territory.

Monza may not be traditional but tarmac is tarmac and although it will look different to a normal tarmac rally it will still be a real test of driving.

We should be grateful to Italy for getting another event organised at short notice and we could be more so if Ypres gets cancelled.

The 2021 Calendar is out and hasnt gone to 'Circuit-based' events, so just accept Monza 2020 as a one-off. It could be fun.

NASCAR is also a test of driving, yet it's not exactly same driving as a rally stage.

Eddie can’t even tell the difference between the 16 and 17 cars, so you’re probably correct not to trust his opinion on whether Monza will be ‘a real test of driving’ or not.

Guessing this won't surprise anyone at this point.

I think it’s fair enough. They’ve all had the same crack at it.
Ok, any less and I might not think the same.
If Elfyn Evans, son of that absolute legend, Gwyndaf, is world champion at the end of six, seven or eight rounds I will be absolutely ecstatic regardless.

TBH I don't think they have much choice anymore, and it's been well fought out for so...of course I'd prefer to have another round and preferably have two including the rally in Ypres, but if the next two are cancelled I can still say, it was a heck of a championship even if it was considerably short. For our sport's sake, I hope we don't have to wait 15 weeks until the next rally...

This may not be the correct place for it, but I will be sparing a thought tonight for Laura Salvo, the young lady who was killed in an accident today.
Thoughts are with her family and friends.

T16 misinterprets my every post. He is my personal forum troll and has now been Blocked.
