Truth.

I like how the rotors glow red at the 2.20 mark. Ceramics?

That is dead sexy and yes, I am fairly sure that most of the WRC teams have gone to ceramics now. Not certain where I may have read or heard that, so take it with a grain of salt.

Restrictions for the "open class" (i.e. like the WRC car in the video) are, among other things, a 2" turbo inlet restricter and a 2L engine.


As for the brakes, for tarmac rallies they use ceramic brakes, very large rotors (I think they use 18" rims for tarmac, but for some they might even be 19's). Basically just "standard" track brakes. For gravel they use 12" rotors with 4 pot brakes under 15" wheels, pretty much the same setup I have on my car, actually, but with ceramic rotors.
