Time perhaps for the FIA and the promoters to grasp the nettle and do the unthinkable. As much as I love the previous and current crop of WRC1 cars, I cannot see the championship surviving for much longer if any one of the two 'real' manufacturers were to leave. We all know how fickle manufacturers are.
Time to think about making WRC2 the top category in the coming years. Grand Prix racing (as it was then) did something similar in the early 50s when the field of Grand Prix cars became too thin, the F2 cars of the day became the main show.
Standing by to be shouted down!
