strange as it may seem, Pirelli stated that they got just +1 puncture compared to Michelin last Monte.
Maybe they count WRC2 as well because I don't recall any punctures for the top drivers in 2020

A lot more punctures in 2019, but at least the Toyota punctures were caused by their rims breaking.

Yes, they count all 4wd cars.
It's quite normal to have more punctures while using snow tires as sidewalls are weaker in those tires. Also some of the stages were not typical Monte ones, with possibility of deep (muddy) cuts where it's much easier to damage the tire.
This year they seemed to have snow tires in the mix for every section. Previous years were often with slicks. Just my impression. Similarly I agree there seemed to be more cuts.
