I'm talking about this Monte Carlo only.

read again my post.
Points are not given by 1-1 mistakes,but by time they lost/gain.

Did the Monte really have to be 5 days long, not that I would call a single stage in a day really a day. The number of stages a day is draging it out.

Indeed. When I hear 'five day rally' I think of the RAC from 20 years ago. And to be honest I'd like to see a few events like that; part of the unique 'soul' Todt was was talking about.

I just looked that there was 0 retirements today. Has it happened before.. in Monte? Anywhere? And it seems that the maximum number of cars allowed to pass Turini is almost exactly matched! (only first 60 cars are allowed to start and there are 59 left :-))

I was lucky to compete on the 1981 RAC (Rally GB) we started in Chester on the Saturday morning. Ist major stop was on Sunday night after Lake District and Kielder stages. Hafren forest stage in wales was 50ks long and run at 3.00am. That was a 5 day event.

For sure the people who said there were only 10 or 15 cars left at the finish, didn't have it good.

Maybe now more people will realise that no SupeRally is a good idea as there are much cars left into the final stages of the rally.
