WRC main class in 2025

[saco0o]

WRX is not a manufacturer series, WRC is not a privateer/teams series, they shouldn't be compared. Privateers and teams aren't travelling the globe as WRX shows, so why suggest privateers are the answer for WRC? Without manufacturer investment in WRC, the promoter has to step in and these working group decisions show they still choose a Rally1 top tier with the fewer cars.

WRC2 already exists and Rally2 is very popular to the point of oversubscription on European events, but it cannot sustain the series itself, nor multiple events for much of the participants. Why do people expect making either it or something indistinguishable from it as the 'main class' will a) attract privateers to compete globally full time when they weren't already, and b) save the series?

fine, but manufacturers are not interested in wrc. to the point where the promoter is paying for an extra msport car in order to increase the field. do you think this is healthy?
my comparision with wrx is because they went full evs. there where only 7-8 cars. people DONT WANT TO WATCH a championhsip with 7 cars, so they start complaining, then they stop paying for the rallytv app, then they stop watching, then one event promoter stop paying to host the round because "no one is coming or watching", then its a snowball.
wrx got to this point where most of the event/track promoters gave up.
wrc is on the "fans stop paying for the rallytv app".
its a really quick snowball.
wtcc died but tcr is doing really well. rallycross is allowing ice cars again so theres good expectations again, cuz more privateers may be able to compete (unless they all gave up for good, because - as i said - it is a quick snowball)
wrc is not doing well. they cannot keep rally1 hybrid cars because manufacturers WANT TO LOOK MORE CLEAN on their P.R. its not even their own hybrid unit, its all a spec thing. this is all a joke

edit: im not angry, sorry if sounded like that. im just honestly worried manufacturers' egos are ruinning wrc. they want to "look green" instead of working to improve the sport. fine, its not their job to improve a sport, but then its the sport's job to "not let manufacturers' egos' ruin the championship". 8 cars is bad and the hybrid unit is SPEC, so theres no developmente or anything. its just a sticker for them to post on instagram.
