Australia's "attractive location" is thought to be Bathurst, but that is still dependent on the New South Wales government, and if their funding for the event is, a: still available, and b: able to be used for another major event in Bathurst.Part of the sponsorship agreement for Rally Australia was that the event be held in Coffs Harbour, a region that the government was keen to further promote. However, the WRC Promoter has long been anti-Coffs Harbour, stating that the region doesn't have the population base to support a WRC round. “We already agreed for 2021 that Spain is going to return. We expect and propose we would keep a slot for the French – providing they offer an attractive event. They are working on different scenarios and we are curious to see what’s coming," Ciesla said. “Our intention would be to also return to an attractive location in Australia and, of course, Chile’s return is pending the difficult situation in the country. Most of the traditional events remain there.”
