Definitely looks to be Tanaks to lose (and to be fair it has done for some time). Neuville looks destined to be a 'nearly man' doesn't he?

Agreed - there really hasn't been anything on mainstream media channels, not even a passing mention it's been on. The big positive for me was having a stage at Oulton Park - that was pushed via MSV channels, so whilst it's still promoting to a motorsport crowd it may have brought in people that wouldn't otherwise have shown any interest in a rally. Back in the day stages like those at Chatsworth or the Silverstone Super Special were shown live on the BBC and again brought in crowds of the less hardcore rally fans - surely something like that would be viable now?
