SS2 had to be replaced because of local people complaining

I've made maps for monte carlo that show all watching positions available through internet and how it looks like from that spot with a car passing by with youtube/instagram links. Positions and stages are precisely drawn and marked. Also I made colorized icons describing speed of a car passing by on each spot (bright green 0-30kmh, dark green 30-80, yellow 80-110, bright orange 110-150 dark orange 150-180 and red 180+). Every corner is described briefly of what you can see from it. On each mapped position you will get 3 photos of a car entering, going through and exiting that corner as a preview from a video. Maps are suited for both newcomers and experienced users so you'd know what to expect from a position rather than going blindly and being dissapointed with your watching position.

Stages covered: Shakedown, SS1 SS 2 SS3, SS5, SS6, SS8, SS9, SS16, SS17, SS18
Watching positions covered: 252 + 60 on shakedown

Shakedown map link is here for FREE: https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/ed...5o&usp=sharing

And all other maps together I am giving for a small FEE of 30€ due to this taking way too much time and effort. Paying only through paypal.
You will get them as soon as I saw payment being made and it can be used only on one email of your choice that you will tell me in payment description box or in dm's and maps will be shared on that email. Email preferably has to be gmail, but not necessarily due to google having issues with sharing on some other emails that are not gmail ones.
Contact: Preferably reddit /u/Lect3R, discord: Lect3R or alternatevly here in dm's but in past I had issues here with dm's not openning.

with hybrids confirmed to be dropped, should we expect extra entries in rally1 already in MC?
i'd guess 'not yet' but i hope im wrong by at least 2 extra cars lol

I think if the interests is being there, many cars could be build sooner than later, but FIA is again procrastinate with decision of dropping that tech. I think it could be good, since the cars will still be spectacular, fast and clearly could many challenge for some good outing at least for top ten, if we look at local contestants (I exclude Serderidis and Bertelli, because they are slow as hell).

The option to run non-hybrid versions of the Rally1 (Puma) has been available for a while so I dont see any sudden increase in cars once hybrid is officially dropped.

Maybe it's this due to uncertainity... If we look closely on team perspective, I don't think they have that much cars built already, since there is challenges running it in big numbers on rallies, logistical side, infrastructure, unknown costs (which just now appeared to be way higher than expected). Then teams didn't build many cars to have them in stock. This year indeed they change those rules but still, with lack of interest they didn't built them. But dropping hybrid unit for good also means, that also ''locals'' or whoever wants have equal chances to challenge for top ten, podiums, or good appereances. I explicit take out of this Serderidis and Bertelli again, because those two would drive slow even if they only had hybrid powered cars. This year is clearly a proof that Rally1- and Rally2+ concept wouldn't work.
