That nose is awful. WRC is going to be a hell of a show for the next few years. Only thing it is really missing is a batshit (autocorrect you are strange. I typed batshit and you attempted to correct to babyshitter) soundtrack to go with the crazy looks.

But also 30 years ago. They could choose to make it sound retro-cool or make it win races. I think there’s only one real choice there, though.

The reason the modern cars sound the way they do is because they are all 1.6L Turbo I4s (which all have to be transversely mounted). If they were to open it up a bit and allow for different layouts you would get a wonderfully diverse selection of engine notes and even entice additional manufacturers into competing (the current regs basically outlaw manufacturers such as Subaru who don’t use that layout). Maybe balance them like how Group B used to be by factoring in displacement, aspiration, and boost pressure (Group B allowed vehicles with lower displacements to have a lower minimum weight but didn’t impose a limit on boost pressure making it a competition to see who can cram the most boost into the smallest engine, at one point Lancia tested a Delta S4 engine and made 1000HP with 5 bar of boost in a 1,759cc engine) to equalize the diverse engines.
