The teams should start doing the 2027 project yesterday and probably will be next year somewhere around this date if they will go on like that.
    Unless you're in the room with them, what an odd thing to say. Do you think I did much at work so far this year or do I choose to do nothing because I work for myself?

    Probably you are just studying how to be grumpy all the time, annoy people, and enjoy being miserable. I don't have another explanation for why you always attack everyone here with your negativity and smart-ass answers. I'm sorry for the people around you.

    If M-Sport with lowest budget says that the price of a Rally1 car isn't top priority to change, then this is not a problem. He is right.

    Although all stupid FIA fines should be reconsidered and rather turned into a story and boost marketing aspect.

    What I'm more concerned why the hell rulemakers needs so much time to decide (rules are probably being revealed in december). Is it enough to existing teams to prepar the cars? Is it enough time to Hyundai rethink and stay in the sport? Is it enough to convince potential new teams to enter? Well I think NOT. Another shoot in the leg.

    Do you have any more info than the rest of the world? Because it seems quite the opposite. The recent year actually showed that they don't know anything, nor even can't complete meetings, and saying that they get at least one step further. They are just throwing random stupid ideas to the world. Yet the real threat of one crucial brand is here, right now. And if things don't get right at the end, I believe that even M-Sport will lose that little piece from Ford they're getting. This isn't the right message to potential new entrants... And how would then even ''private'' teams prepare with significantly lower budget than official manufacturer teams?

    f1 with liberty became this thing that made every other motorsport series think they should do the same thing in order to reach f1's popularity and investment. we keep reading the word "promotion" everywhere now, this is so tiring and frustrating for an older fella like me haha

    fia speaks constantly with all involved, even if outside everything is silent, how can you believe that the manus involved have no idea of what's happening? they would be way more vocal.
    they surely know the general direction. just the same way they didn't flinch that much with the rally1-/rally2+ announcement that then was retired. i guess manus were pretty confident to stay with this reg until '27. and now I'm positive they have talks and a general idea of what is brewing.

    Hayden Paddon on Spin, The Rally Pod discusses how rallying should change:

    The big choice of direction will be going for more manufacturers, or more privateers...
