I think it may just be a natural evolution. Initially it was a new thing to try out for a lot of people, then some may have decided it wasn’t for them. Numbers slowly drop until you have a core group that really loves it. Personally I’ve enjoyed every minute (except for flying off cliffs…), and love both formats. As Rhino mentioned, it may also be due to people’s time constraints.
Looking forward to that! Wanted to drive the 037 since the the Grand Tour did the story of them vs the Quatttos, but just never got around to it. Now’s my chance!
Also like the idea of swapping USA for Monte Carlo. Personally I liked Monaco, but I know it wasn’t everyone’s cup of tea.
My only other comment is I would have liked to see the H2 RWD class. The Escort has a sweet sounding engine. Perhaps swapping that with the R5s, as we’ve done a lot of them in the Alt Rally? Happy with whatever you guys come up with though.
