I like the four day layout from Wednesday to Saturday - and let everyone find their way home on Sunday - but with eighteen stages and only three on Friday it will be a very slow paced event.

The three stages of Friday covers a long way from Valence to Monaco and due to the location of these stages these three are most likely the ones where to expect dramas. It's huge distance although the competitive kilometers are rather small. Anyway this short leg sure deserves to be seen at least because of return of the legendary Sisteron stage!

What I really don't like is to have start in Monaco, shakedown in Sospel but first leg three hundred kilometers away at Valence!

The WRC have never liked Valence. I can't remember the IRC complaining, though I could be wrong. However, it's a better route than this years. They will be running Col du Turini at night, won't they?

**Mirek** · 16th Jul 12, 19:25

They did last run in the night last year too but with more strict safety rules it lost something.

In the IRC they did both runs in the night with the second one ending near midnight in a great atmosphere. I feel really happy I could be there.

Agree, to much etap for spectators if would like to see the full program - and no realy new stages, I would be happy to see Sisteron and others back, but it will depend more on the wheather how spectacular will be.

Quick question. Is this rally now good for 2013 to access most of the stages in the day?

Which city/town is the best to stay in over the rally? Nice? Then easy access to drive/park close to stages and walk the rest of the way? Even being media?...

I'm extremely keen to head over! Just one phone call and i'm there! =D

**Mirek** · 4th Aug 12, 16:59

Definitely best is to stay on two places. Near Valence for northern stages and near Nice for southern ones (we usually stay in Menton). Be aware the mountain roads are very slow.

**GigiGalliNo1** · 9th Aug 12, 04:14

Would anyone be interested in sharing a car and going to stages in Monte?

yes the best place... with 2 places during Rallye... maybe for the first day more close that Rally.. Because Valence to go rally is a bit longer, and for the final days menton or noth menton is good

We have stayed in Nice for this year Monte Carlo. We missed the first two days, and on Friday we travelled about 300 km north to see Cimetière de Vassieux – Col de Gaudissart and Montauban sur Ouvèze-Eygalayes stages. It was a long way definately but we were prepared for that and was a good oppurtunity to see the beatiful landscape. Of course staying near Valence is much better. For saturday and sunday stages Nice is very good located it's about 30 km to Col de Turini and Lantosque- Luceram stages. It's also close at about 20 min. to Monte Carlo where is the service park and the prize giving ceremony.

PS. And of course the closest airport to Monte Carlo is Nice international airport

Last year's stages don't change too much, but 2013 maps are now available: ACM - Automobile Club de Monaco

The poster was also published:

I miss some snow in it. It will be enough if it appears on the roads.

I think those maps are from 2012

How very well organised 2012 maps in the current edition and 2013 maps in the 2012 edition. Only the Google map too as far as I can see, there is nothing on the PDF when I download (or is it me!)

You have to click on the link I posted above and then on "ITINERAIRES/CARTES". After that if you move the sidebar down you'll find all the 2013 pdf maps there (click on the pluses for each day).
