At the start of last Season the odds for Ogier were 2/9...
The bookies clearly dont fancy M-Sport.

As RMC is finished, got the idea that I really want to experience it in person next year.
Could any one give me some advice on that? (before i have forgot)
Have got cheap flights to Nice and Grenoble, but no further ideas.

Check out the first 30 pages of the 2017 Monte thread as there are a number of advice posts there.
Fly into Nice as that is where you'll end up if you are going to watch the Sunday stages and car hire is cheapest if you return it to the pick up location.
Have someone 'over 25' in the party to keep car hire and insurance cost down.
Arrive 2 days before the start - you need to recce your spectating routes, the atmosphere in Gap service park is fun and shakedown is a must-see
Look for accommodation in the Gap region as soon as the dates / route is announced.
Make sure you have cold weather clothing with waterproofs too.
Learn how to put snow chains on if you never have done before. (just noticed you're from Riga so you probably have the necessary experience!)
I'm sure other people will have other bits of good advice but good friends that you don't mind travelling with for hours are a pre-requisite.Kris Meeke got fired -PSG so terrified they quit!

Definitely RMC is a must see. As I wrote in a previous post, arriving in the stage and walking those historical routes at 6 in the morning with the cold and thin air of France, the fires of fans in the side of the street... That's a unique experience.
Anyway, Mintexmemory has told you already a lot of good suggestions, I would add to go very early in the stages (2 hours before the start, 1,5 maximum) because then they become crowded.

Rally Discussion and Bar Talk Thread
RMC was excellent for the first time.
Lyon is a key place to fly into as Nice won't have that many Winter types available... downside to Nice but least it's close to the rally and if you have to fly out Monday morning it's best.GG: "I'm stinky! I needa good shower and nice bowl of pasta!"
This is the proof that it could be done with fans help. When I propose that kind of coverage everyone here completely lose their minds, like always. But this looks great. I think that it could be fun...
