These racers make the Baja 1000 racers look like lame amatuers...

Maybe this is why Gran Turismo uses a fictional Group B category for Rally racing. These regulations make no sense and the fact that only 3 manufacturers are participating just like NASCAR, all rally cars are original models not based on any existing road cars, like the Honda HSV-010 from Super GT, and that production costs are high, but the budget limit is low sounds like a recipe for destruction.

For Me the biggest problem is only 3 manufacters and only 6-8 cars . Of this year i didn’t watch one rally cause 6 drivers is really a joke ( rally 1 ) the need atleast 10 cars to make it interesting and would love more basic steel cars agian..

O Rally de Portugal com uma organização sem mácula. Viva o maior Rally do mundo, viva Portugal!

Welcome to Portugal ❤

1:17 I did not know Hyundai built also Airplanes

I gotta ask as years and years ago I looked you guys up after roadkill did that stint with you awhile back, in NH I think, did she sign that quattro you guys were fixing up? as I was like wait a minute, you've got a quattro, really lol nevermind the bleeding charger can I have a go in that lol also its funny I keep hearing the name McRae in the video, I didnt know Colin McRae father was a rally driver

The cars are too advanced. The reason why groupA was exciting? Because the cars actually moved and slid around. Aero is the bane of exciting motorsports, it has to be gone/extremely limited. Suspension travel has to be cut

I've stopped watching these past two seasons. The first year of WRC Plus was great. I had every stage on my phone but I couldn't justify the price. More to the point there are not enough teams. Very little competition. Perhaps if the specs focussed on enticing manufacturers, this would give it the same injection of excitement that WEC has recently acquired.

They've made it boring. Theres a reason there was so much interest and support for last year's RAC rally. They should take note and stop making the sport further out of reach of the little man on the street. We don't want another F1. The reason WRC was so interesting 20 years ago, was because people could buy a rally car for the road, they could see themselves in the cars on the stages. The drivers were interesting, they had personality. Now even the drivers are polished corporate robots with no personality.

DirtFish anytime 😅

Look at where the WEC is today and that is where the WRC should be but instead it's neglected.

Most incredible thing is the game not crashing on them requiring to validate game files. Brilliant driving experience but very frustrating with constant crashing of the game.

Love it

I feel fortunate to live 10 minutes away from this rally stage. Used to live a bit further away from it but as many around Fafe, everytime the show is in town, I'm there. A tradition since I was young. And as almost anyone around this area that has to get rid of an old car, there is always one thing you must do before you part ways, and that's the jump.

I think the contrast between the W.R.C and the W.E.C is stark. The W.E.C has a huge presence on KZbin and is attracting so many manufacturers whilst staying true to itself, whilst W.R.C's coverage is behind a paywall almost entirely, and fewer and fewer manufacturers

King Kalle the kid seems amused with crazy questions

WRC just needs a couple more manufacturers and it will be fantastic!

Good sond 😂

Pace notes off a phone?

Hyundai Toyota M-sport All have Rally2 cars now? There are other Rally2 manufacturers so a transition to making a Rally2+ be the new Rally1 is viable but the timeline being conpressed wouldn't be good either.

"ICE" + Good promotion and easy viewership is all the sport needs. WRC and WRX two of rhe greatest motorsports in the world. "Build it and they will come" but they don't know it's on or where to watch it....

Ahhh how i wish one of these manufacturers will do a street legal version of their rally cars… like Porsche does with their GT3 RS and GT4 RS …

azores rally is the best, only for the braves.. Lolo grande rally como sempre e desde sempre ,e com estas imagens melhor ainda.

Amazing video!

질문이 있습니다. 경기중 집을 파손하면 누가 책임 지나요? 선수? 선수가 속한 팀? 아니면 협회?

👍👍👍👍👍👍

I wonder what Cyril and Seb were talking about

Amazing Rally Portugal this year!! 👍🏻

I still don't understand why WRC isn't courting outside manufacturers to see what THEY need to re-enter Rally1. Like Subaru.

There are seismic changes all over the place. I suspect FIA wants to pull the same trick with WRC as it did with WEC, but the integration of hydrogen combustion makes it very difficult.

why put that ridiculous disclaimer at the beginning. You're just contributing to the world going wrong.

Very interesting also seeing cars which are or were not imported to the US. Vintage Escort MkII and 2 door Fiesta

best stage in the WORLD!!!

nice work... congratulations... Dirtfish... just one thing... the music... we are not Spanish...🏁🇵🇹🏁

To declare Kalle as the best ever is an absurd overstatement. He is nowhere near the two Sebs. Not yet. Maybe someday, but not yet.

I think Sabaru want to get rid of the expensive aero stuff, and just send the cars out on track from the production line, like the old days. Certainly with Subaru, Audi, Porsche, and so many other big names looking from afar (even Mercedes, General Motors, Haas and Ferrari), I think if the package was a lot simpler and cheaper, then manufacturers could easily field more cars. Imagine if we have 8 teams, fielding 4 cars each. Right now, the 3 remaining teams need to stop dictating the future of the sport.

there's lack of promotion, it's quite an obscure sport compared to the other ones and sure theres many people who dont even know the WRC exists. please make it more available to watch

Ogier is inevitable

I'm 45 years old...I still remember the day were I was so close I could see the underbody of the car on the jump! This year 2024 was one of the best years!

Double podium Toyota Yaris WRC1 and WRC2 💪💪

7:32 Enters in a full slide, flicks the car and still manages a clean cut of the 2nd corner. Always amazing to watch these guys 🤯

Steve Rider is THE sports presenter. Head and shoulders above the rest. This is fantastic!

Rally Portugal the best 👍👍

Wow! Check out the crowds [ 3:45 ] .. at least they’ve learned for their grandfathers not to stand in the middle of the road. Even the last shot, they still have to walk a kilometre from their campsite. I’m glad the drivers put on a great rally for them.

I like WRC❤

Good spot 👍
