Lydden candidate round & 12 rounds in ERC

[1975DCS]

I was reading all the stuff on ERC and Rallycross Worlds and I do hope that a lot of ERC contenders will come to Lydden on the 24 and 25th of August.

I was also reading the "debate" on the maximum of 12 rounds in ERC and that there are 14 candidates, while (most) drivers see 10 as a financial and time related maximum.

I think a combination with Belgium and Holland is also a good date for a proper ERC as most of the drivers are there anyway. Maybe 12 rounds are only possible if the ERC driven in a "3 in a row" strategy, rather than the current "2 in a row" format.

Like:
Portugal > France > Austria
Belgium > England > Belgium (I put England in between, because than there is no hurry anyway, saves total travel time for the drivers from Sandinavia and France etc)
Norway > Sweden > Finland
Hungary > Czech Republik > Poland

It would be nice it the ERC could attract a ferryline for free transfers though...

Although Russia is a bit remote and difficult to place... Just like the remote Portugese...
