    Apparently Saudi Arabia is a done deal for next year: https://rallyjournal.com/a-new-addit...-championship/
    Taken from the article:
    "According to the French magazine Autohebdo, confirmation for the Saudi Arabian event is expected as early as March."

    Aren't they supposed to have a candidate event if they're to hold a WRC event next year?

    Hey, You can't be so naive.

    It is Saudi Arabia. They don't need candidate event.
    I thinl that if they wanted, they could buy out an event even for 2024 season.

    If we leave all that politics bs aside(as we can't change it anyway), I believe it would be an awesome event for a rally fan.

    In fact, nobody needs to be a candidate event...

    Madeira was WRC candidate some years before IRC starts.

    You don't have to run a candidate event now, you just have to run a stage to full WRC status during an event, to show that you are up to the task as will happen in Ireland if the money comes available. And at the minute the money still hasn't appeared...

    I'm not, but I'm pretty sure last time they realized it, they didn't have an event the following year; I'll admit as a rally it would probably produce a good show.

    Saudi has been a for sure for several seasons now, yet I looked past ten years on ewrc, not a single rally results on there. Was there ever one? Look on the SAMF website, a rally is a rally raid. I can see it not happening again.

    No, there has never been a Saudi rally in the Middle East Rally Championship nor a rally worth of note. There's the Hail Baja/Rally and of course the Dakar but no traditional rally, unless they're small regional rallies we don't know about.
