Argentine driver Martin Scuncio during the 2019 World Rally Championship near Concepción, Chile, on May 11. Chile has been removed as a host of the event, the organisers announced on Monday.This year's World Rally Championship has been reduced to 13 rounds after Chile was removed at the request of local organisers, the governing FIA said on Monday.The championship starts this week in Monte Carlo.
The decision means that the subsequent round in Argentina, initially scheduled from April 30 to May 3, has been brought forward by one week to give more time to ship freight afterwards. Media reports last year cited political and social unrest in Chile as the reason for the organisers seeking the cancellation.
However, the all-electric Formula E series held the third round of its championship in Santiago last weekend. The event was based around the port city of Concepción, some 440km south of Santiago.
