WORLD RALLY CHAMPIONSHIP PRIMER
Did you get bitten by the motorsport bug after DTS or f1 fandom in general and now you want to watch more cars driving around? You should consider rally! It’s fun! I don’t hate any of the drivers yet! There are narratives! Let me tell you all about it! With words and pictures!
This multi-part primer aspires to the era of livejournal canon primers with the hopes of there someday being multiple pages of fic in the World Rally Championship RPF tag on ao3. I started following the WRC this year, in the middle of Rally Sweden. Since then I semi obsessively watched all of the event highlights available on WRC+, which goes back to 2014. I’ve gone onto some weird Instagram spirals and learned very many facts. But I’m still new to this, and this primer is definitely a work in progress, and I would love for people who know more than me to come into my inbox with contradictory opinions and things I should know.
It was suggested that I start off by explaining why I think rally is cool, because I DO think it’s SO COOL. That's below the cut.
