World cup of subies?

Although this is indeed old news and Ive known about it for a while now, it's still hard for me to believe that Subaru pulled out of the WRC. I could have understood if they had other/bigger motorsports events that they were part of, like F1 or something, but the WRC was Subaru's thing, for them to pull out is like (was going to make a racial joke about men not pulling out when they should and resulting in 10 kids that they can't afford) Audi not racing in the 24 hour races anymore!

they haven't won a WRC championship since 2003, they even restructured their car to try to compete with the hatchback citroen's/fords yet they still failed. Why put money into it when your car can't compete . Their management was horrible and their cars had way too many problems during the rallies
