I think Bakkerud mean that the newcomers aren't rallycross profiles. WRX isn't a championship with just rallycrossers, it is a series blended with guys well known from other disciplines. Even Mikkelsen said last year that WRX was a championship for the retired or drivers past their prime. Doing rallycross seems to be more of a fun thing to try for many motorsport stars, or for settling down.
I also think he meant that it was tougher in the past. Not a clean himself driver but still, he has a point.
