It does make sense: more power is more difficult to control. It is not all about stage times. The chassis are currently so good the 300-320 bhp power doesn't upset the cars at all. Personally I think it's a shame the the smallest engines you could think of should suffer from a heavy 33 mm restrictor. While on the other hand is loaded with technology you hardly find on fast road cars, like ALS, 14 cm wheel travel, etc. Any normal tuned car won't have these. Technology is actually killing the sport, too good, too expensive, not recognisable. They should bring WRC back to basic: massive power (either 1.6 or 2.0) on a chassis comparable with a good hot hatch.
