Janneman60 157 Posted January 20 Well, find some company who wants to step in for only 1 year, and that year for sure the first part is very likely to be difficult beacause of covid... I start to wonder if there is a WRX at all this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PJTierney 5,035 Posted February 3 🤔 https://dirtfish.com/rallycross/world-rx/why-wrc-and-world-rx-may-have-a-shared-future/ Quote “It’s an idea I introduced last year, to have World Rallycross – to have this big final in Spa-Francorchamps in the same weekend, to have two disciplines at one level joining for one event,” he said. The futures of both the WRC and World RX could be tied even closer from next year if speculation that WRC Promoter is about to take over the rights to World RX is to be believed. World RX lost its promoter when IMG walked out at the end of last season, just seven years into a 20-year term. The FIA launched a tender process to replace IMG and sources say WRC Promoter is closing on that deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
F2CMaDMaXX 511 Posted February 3 (edited) Why does it feel like WRC promoter is 'closing in on the deal' because there were no other contenders... Edited February 3 by F2CMaDMaXX Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Myrvold 80 Posted February 3 With how the WRC "promoter" have handled WRC during the pandemic (and, well, the last X-amount of years, with WRC All Live being the exception). This is not good. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

James McAdam 313 Posted February 11 I am happy to see that the WRC guys have it. Not happy to see the electric things. But at least, we should be able to see our favorites drivers and cars one more year. 🙂 Now, please, Codemasters, find an arrangement with the new promoter to carry on to have the WRX licence in your future titles. Please, I am begging you. 🙂 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
