Calendar changes

The future of the Rally of Poland was called into question after the FIA repeatedly raised concerns about the event's safety.^[9] The FIA had previously ordered a review of the event's safety standards ahead of the 2017 event, threatening to rescind the rally's World Championship status if conditions were not improved.^[10] The event was ultimately removed and replaced by the Rally of Turkey, which returned to the calendar for the first time since 2010.^[3] The event will be based in the resort town of Marmaris in the south-western Muğla Province.^[11]
