I think the entire sport ghas simply grown too quickly too soon, without any regard for what happens if things go wrong.
WRX is on its knees numbers wise, yet they carry on regardless spending thousands on marketing.
ritish rallycross has been struggling for a long time, numbers in certain classes are ok, but those that support one or the other series back them pointlessly without realising that the sport as a whole in he UK would be far richer and better as one bigger series, than two disparate ones.
As for this new thing, it seems tough, if WRX is suffering, then all rallycross will be other than in the places it has always been big, Norway and Sweden and Finland.
It's simple really, IMG ruined it, and these are the consequences.
