Stefanvv, my previous post was a reply to rallyfun's post I quoted.
My take on the subject is that every rally is different and posses its' own challenges for the crews. Meaning we can't say that additional tarmac rally would be too much because it resembles other tarmac rallies due to the road surface.
Yes, I just filled the gaps ;) Every Rally is different and everyone has its own preference.
How did you come to it? If you don't see similarity between Monte and San Remo, Germany and Alsace then you have a problem with "logic". I didn't see any similar rallies in the calendar appart from those mentioned. So to make things logical lets bring back unique Corsica and leave alone unique Sardinia.Quote:

Good video of Lappi's test in Spain. It includes some onboard footage.

Excited to see him progress over the next couple of years, looks a real talent. And slight off-topic, but when the Fabia is mainly white you can really appreciate how good looking a car it really is!
The PT Autosport article says that this eventual Sanremo WRC return is based in the mixed surface scheme that made the italian rally an iconic event.Quote:
