Oho, this is interesting turn of events; they are opening new chapter for all the new prospects, with the non-hybrid R1 car. Very interesting.
This seems like a sensible way to do it, with a warm up event and minus hybrid. A bit surprised it's not in a Toyota as he switched to that for ERC but great news anyhow.. i expect him to turn a few heads in Latvia.

This is a better idea than the 'Rally2+ kit' going forward until 2027. Just need Hyundai and Toyota to also provide cars for locals.

Rally1 with no hybrid is really stupid imo, less power but still with the added weight of the hybrid.
Not as stupid as giving a red-blooded novice a lighter car for two of the fastest rallies going - not being a comment on Sesks' ability.
A hybrid-equipped car is 3.3kg/hp under the engine, to 2.5 with the acceleration boost. Without hybrid weight it's 3.1kg/hp all the time.
Somebody will say that doesn't mean everything but it's a good guide.
It’s for 2025 rather but anyhow: https://dirtfish.com/rally/wrc/wrc-i...or-broadcasts/
Wow I don't like that at all. It doesn't make any sense to me on a sporting level. WRC promoter probably forgot that in F1, team radio isn't there just to broadcast funny lines. I don't think there is anything so important that teams would need to say that to the crew during the stage.
