Let us remember that a few months ago we read the words of the new President of the FIA, Jean Todt, ensuring that you one of the objectives of its mandate was do return to the world the wonderful Road Rallye of a few years ago. The time has passed and the WRC has returned with new brands, but are now the rally itself which can count on new features.
The Rally of Argentina will be one of them. The South American race has just introduced innovations that will be in 2012. To come joint, the test has historically been on Earth, is added also the change in the length of the rally. Nothing more and nothing less than five days of rally and more than 800 kilometres, double that of the current, in what will again be an endurance test for drivers and machines.
Still it is a project that is not approved, but it is worthy of admiration that the organizers will begin to demonstrate true value when planning a different concept of proof that we are accustomed. This can be also the first test for this new back to the origins both longs for Jean Todt and in which he has participated.
The Chairman of the Sports Committee of the ACA, Carlos Garcia remohi, gave the first clues about the proof of the coming year:
The trend of FIA is return to the long rallies, to powers 'endurance' type. And we have been chosen for the first of these tests next year.
