    My thought on the Sardinia affaire. I don't see the connection between artificial jump and leaving Sardinia. Just remove artificial jumps... That's bullshit imo, all the car were ok, Tommi Makinen should worry about the fact that his car at third year of development broke so easily not about rally sardinia. Also I agree with others that people at Service Park are not how you measure a rally success, even if I think that Olbia and surrounding stages are better and can provide more closeness with the SP.

    At stages is always full of people much more than a lot of others rallys, that's where you call a success.

    On the other side I think that if you move WRC in the mainland you will have much more fans. I think the heart of rally in Italy is in the center/north of the mainland but the federations there have not enough money to organize a WRC rally. Anyways if there is a place in Italy where WRC should be hold is up there.

    Regarding logistics I fully understand the teams. I live in the mainland but I occasionally go to Sardinia because my parents and some old friends live there and it's very difficulty to do it for me as a private traveller, with no more than a luggage with me. I can imagine it's a nightmare for teams, also in terms of costs.

    Unbelievable end to the rally. Right at the finish line. The emotion, intensity from fans and driver, I can’t describe the feeling being there.

    I would completely support an event with nightmarish logistics if it brought something unique and desirable. Safari? Yes. Azores? I'm Sold. Sardinia? Well...

    Maybe it's just me but it feels like the most 'generic' rally on the calendar. Like, if you wanted to make a rally video game but you didn't want to go through the hassle of recreating real events and stages, you'd come up with something that looked like Sardinia. It's dirt. It's in the middle of the Mediterranean, right next to Corsica. I guess it's hard on the cars? But not exceptionally hard, the way Acropolis was. Sardinia back to back with Portugal reminds me of when we had Alsace back to back with Germany.
