"Look, I am still convinced today, after seeing the race in Portugal as a retiree who goes to see a WRC race instead of the road construction sites, that this regulation was a mistake.
I am convinced that today’s cars should have been Rally2, with a bigger restrictor, maybe a more eye-catching wing and rear bumper. Potentially there would have been more manufacturers today, there would certainly be more customers ready to race with these cars, there would probably be more interesting races because with cars that cost less, the panorama of competitive drivers who can race is widened."

I wonder if we did the right thing and I take my share of the blame for having these cars now, because I was there too, despite having fought against it until the majority prevailed. We have no new manufacturers, and we don’t know if we will have any soon."
