I don't like tarmac rallies as it's not so spectacular, but if I have to choose one it would be Germany

And as a reserve Turkey as it looked really spectacular last time.WRC Pickem winner 2013

I'd like to see the old corner-stone rallies on the calendar every year. These are IMO: Finland, Monte Carlo, Corsica, Wales, San Remo and, yes, the Safari. Other than that, there can be quite a lot of rotation.

Monte Carlo - Legend.
Sweden-Norway combined event - Long snow event.
Argentina - Long rough event.
Sardinia - Technical sand rally.
Germany - Special tarmac.
Poland - High speed gravel, the 2009 edition was very nice.
Czech Republic - Czech tarmac (the more slow techical one) would deserve a place in the WRC.
Finland - The Best.
New Zealand - Legend in the Southern hemisphere.
Corsica - Difficult tarmac.
Turkey - 2010 route was interesting. Good combination of slow technical rough roads and very high-speed flat out stuff.
Ireland - Dirty, bumpy tarmac. Like.
Wales - The season finale as it should be.Satakymppi, oikee yks

1. Monte-Carlo, the legend always comes first
2. Combined event Sweden/Norway, but would like organisers to move further north direction ostersund (s) or trondheim (n) to secure winter conditions
3. Safari, the battle of man and machine again nature
4. Portugal, although Algarve area has nice stages, love to go back to north and arganil area
5. catalunya: all asfalt stages from LLoret de Mar
6. Acropolis Rally, another legend, more to discover from magnificent gravel roads, always spectaculair
7. Finland, rollercoaster speeds on gravel,
8. Corsica, a bumpy asfalt rally, always tricky
9. RAC, not the combination of micky mouse stages, but the real thing, starting in Cardiff and finish up north in Scotland,
10. Australia, was twice in Perth (97,98) and love the timing, a lot of stages visited or new Zealand,perhaps alternate year to year
11. Sanremo, not the Sardinia-version but the one with 2 days of gravel in tuscany and then 2 days of asfalt in sanremo
12. a event on the american continent, argentina is popular, but would the US been have a contender, i'd go for the yankees
13. other asian event, china, hongkong- peking, himalaya,

For me Monte Carlo, Sweden, Portugal, Greece, Finland, Germany and GB are the must have of the calendar.
Besides those I would like Argentina, Italy (San Remo), Poland, Spain, France ( Corsica) and New Zealand.
