Calendar changes

The Safari Rally Kenya was dropped from the calendar for 2003 due to missed fee payments from previous WRC seasons and was replace by the Rally of Turkey. After the 2002 Kenyan general election, the new government pushed for the Rally to return to the calendar and was looking at replacing Rally Australia after the event was called into question by FIA President Max Mosley due to organisational and safety issues.[2][3] Eventually Rally Australia would go ahead and the Safari Rally Kenya would not return to the WRC calendar until 2021.[4]
