I’ve been trying to follow this event and can’t find too much info or reporting. Is it true manufacturers, drivers, magazines etc. are boycotting this event for some reason? Or is it just a poor showing because of economic conditions / the rumoured difficulties of the location?

It is a shame this event has very few drivers. I really enjoyed Japan 07.
I do think it is mainly down to the location, and of course having very little money doesnt help. I am not saying South Africa isn't a safe place, or even that it's a bad place, but for some reason people think they MAY not be safe, and for most of us that do this as a hobby this may have been too much. This post is not a dig at SA, just the way I see things

they just had the 1/5th onroad worlds there, and that only attracted 7 drivers in total...

Are there any rules+regs. that state the minimum number of entries for the event to be classified as a worlds? And can the winner really be considered a world champion; I feel sorry for whoever it is as the low turnout devalues the title somewhat?
Damn, I should've bought a plane ticket, as maybe even I had a chance this year

It Is a big mistake by the IFMAR to race in south Africa.
Safety is a problem but also the political situation means it is highly controversial to attend. However it is a chance for a brave club racer to make a name for himself. After all even if only 7 drivers turned up for the 1/5th worlds there was still a world champ. I would not go and personally i am very disappointed that the best drivers aren't going i really had high hopes for Tebo making a name for himself!!!

IFMAR need to get rid of the idiot that thought this up. How can you call it a words when people are afraid of going there. Lets hope its not USA or Japan next time.
