You won't make a mistake if You prepare for Sweden and Wales combined with some suncream on top, i.e. to be prepared both for cold and rain (to have spare clothes and shoes in case they become wet). If it's not needed You can always leave it in the car.
    That way I do not attend rallyes in witer period (except Monza rally show).....I hate low temperatures.

    Watching a rally in -30 is not a problem with 5 layers of clothes, man up!

    cold is not so much an issue, rain and wind are the real mood killers.

    I would go to Monte again, I really loved it, but in last couple of years my colleagues organize some skiing holidays in the same time and in the end I always promise them to go with them.

    So true. Rally GB is way more unpleasant to spectate.

    For sure. Haven´t been at RMC but to Rally GB several times and often it´s raining cats and dogs. Remember Walthers Arena 2007 ...

    @Rallyper-you are already handicaped with winter period for eight months, so it is easy to say for you...on the other hand, go once for example to Italy in summer and ''melt'' yourself at 35 degrees....I did it many times...and I enjoyed!

    If the vodka isn't freezing, then rally is not cold enough
    Still hope to make to monte one day... but guess, accomodation/car rent/cathering n stuff make up quite expensive package?

    You can find cheap accommodation in France (during RMC You have anyway time to only sleep there). Cheap hotels like B&B, Etap etc. are in all bigger cities.
