Can´t help you with spectator points as I didn´t attend the rally for ages now. But if you look for places your wife may also like there are many possibilities: bigger cities like Heidelberg or Metz, smaller cities like Idar-Oberstein or Bernkastel-Kues, the Alsace region...
How about Trier? I've been to both Heidelberg and Bernkastel-Kues. Both are nice but very crowded, especially Heidelberg as it attracts many Asian tourists.
What good would a bigger grid do if all those satellite teams would be, as they mostly have been, just padding with no competitive ability whatsoever? Lower classes already exist for that reason,...
Neuville rear-left off the rim at the stage end. When comparing splits, lost ~9sec to Evans.
