Rally Wrc Monte Carlo 2017

Apart from the Thursday night, it's another disappointing Monte itinerary. 32km on the final day, Turini in the day and run once.....

Sorry, but the Monte shouldn't be just another WRC event.

and it should be based in Valance as it used to up until 2014 when it moved to gap...

I don't know if other users have same problem but in Opera browser the link is shown as dangerous due to being reported by Phishtank however when I put directly http://www.planetemarcus.com/ into phistank it finds nothing. Do You have some way to check what's wrong?

It's not only bad. I hope the Col st. Roch itself is part of the power stage. For spectators that's a lot more entertaining place than Turini.

And if I can see right there is stage Bayons in the itinerary! That's this craziness which used to be run in the 90' :)

once again a ridiculous timing. 2 days with only 30km's, a day with 120km's and one day with 160km's of stage. if they would make it 2 days (saturday+sunday) + a ss on friday this could be a great rally. now its just retarded.

Didn't read this. Me too I have to decide my itinerary. If we will go to the same stage let's meet. I will bring some mirto from my hometown in Sardinia to cheer with, otherwise local pastis will be ok as well. :D
 
Tickets and a house near Gap booked two weeks ago. Planing to do Thursday - Saturday and not going south for the last 3 stages. We gonna rent a car from Bergamo as they have obligatory snow chains. So hope to see some of you on the stages.

I'm planning on going.

Flying from Australia to Paris, then to Nice but the schedules are tight. Arrive Monday leave Monday.

Uncertain if I'll be driving by my self or with work colleague so will have to suss out hotel and rental car too if I'm alone.

Keen on shakedown, ceremonial start and two stages a day.

I booked a hotel in seyne. It looks quiet close to 2nd night stage. Any one stay there before, will there be many fans staying in the area? First time in monte can't wait
 
Be careful because there is no road sings(for the stages),sometimes you are some meters away from the stage and you can't understand exactly where you are.Also the organizers don't care at all about the spectators and in some occasions they close the stage-access some km away from the stages,so have in mind that you may need to walk A LOT.This year my descent from the power stage to the car was accurately 1,5 hour.I don't want to disappoint you,just be prepared,maybe you are luckier than me.
 
Thanks for the info. Get there early seems to be the advice from everyone. 3 stages look possible on Saturday. Or should you just stick to 2. How is traffic between the stages
 
Interesting that they run Turini to Peira Cava. Maybe pity it's not reversed like in early IRC because that was the most spectacular variant of the pass over the Col.
