To be honest, I can't see it making much difference. There was maybe only Rustad, Veiby and a handful of wildcards who would have qualified for the WRX semi finals the gulf in class was pretty huge. I can see why the WRX drivers requested it to stop getting held up by slower cars, etc. It's a bit of a shame to be creating a bigger divide between the two but I don't think this will be a major change to the spectacle. More wildcard entries might enter the WRX to test themselves against the big boys. Might be bad news for ERX
