It might feel a little like an immitation Monte, but apart from that I agree what you say about the event. Not a bad idea!Quote:

I like this idea as well, it is really a very nice rally with difficult stages. Even when it was run in oktober it was very tricky event. The possibility that they will run again in IRC is rather small tough, i tought it was a financial issue that made them go out of the championship. For me they can come back at any time. ;)Quote:

Monte Carlo may still be part of the 2012 IRC calendar according to todays Motorsport News although it will either be run as a separate event or as a sub-class within the WRC event. This is good for IRC and for Monte, but only as Monte is a special case.
It would be good if IRC and WRC could come to some agreement to share resources for television coverage of both events.
Yes, it is still possible. We will see what will happen...
