ACM canceld the Historic Monte (30.january-2.february) just 1 hour ago

no sign of any action to cancel "modern" Monte!
I think historic RMC was cancelled yesterday. Regarding modern one, still lot of questionmarks...Quote:

Man atleast the weather looks set for amazing Monte!
not that great. The week-end will be cold and snowy but mild weather (5°, rain) is expected for mid-week so all snow on road will melt. Maybe, maybe, snow is back on sazturday or sunday ... IUt all depends how you trust 1 week-ahead forecast (in the mountains a few hours ahead is already a stretch ...)Quote:

Yes, I am quite confident now it will go ahead.Quote:

For that reason, Bonato changed to WRC3.
Abbring is staying as privateer but will have other advantages (running later can clear some of the snow, less stages in the dark...)
Planetemarcus says Monte has been given green light to run by the authorities
Yes and official statement if you speak French.Quote:

Are there current photos of the conditions on the stages?
So there were many many guys out videoing all the PET's for the Monte.
Will they and other fans really stay away and/or be successfully prevented from attending the rally ? It would be sickening to have some or all of the stages cancelled due to fans after all the trouble to get it on.
What would they be fined for?Quote:

The new corona regulations and breaking the curfew?
Breaking the curfew (from 6PM to 6AM) and attending special stages are two different things...I may have more informations tomorrow, I’ll be in SS13/15 recce.
Are spectators allowed into the stages for recce?Quote:

Never knew that! I always assumed they were closed for recce too. Learn something everyday.Quote:

I wouldn't say that's what the organizer intended, and it will definitely not help them... Looks like this website got hold of the competitors password. ;)Quote:

There is an exception with Monte, shakedown road is usually closed 2 days before, except for locals.

12.9 How do you understand it ?
"12.9 Sections 6, 7 and 8
Only the 50 first competitors classified at the end of the section 5 will be authorized to take the start of sections 6, 7 and 8, on Sunday, 24th January 2021, at TC 12B.
If more than 50 competitors are classified at the end of section 5, the rule below will apply for any competitor classified 51st and above and the following:
To be eligible for the provisional and final classifications, all these those competitors must remain in the Parc Fermé from the end of section 5 until the Stewards authorize the opening of the Parc Fermé at the end of the rally.
- For each special stage running on Sunday, 24th January 2021, all those competitors will be allocated a notional time which will be calculated using the slowest time achieved in each special stage plus 2 minutes per special stage.
After the end of Section 8 they will be reclassified behind the last competitor still in race"
It´s normal in Monte that not all can start on Sunday
but
This time those who keep their car in parc-ferme will get times from sundays stages.
-can they score WRC2/3 or RGT points ?
-what about WRC2 Powerstage points (remember that there is only 6 WRC2 entries so this could be realism)
-WRC2 Teams points (only 2 Teams entered, so if you finish you get good points)
You can score points in WRC2/3. Last year this happened in WRC3. Also think that Teams points will be awarded "normally".Quote:

It never crossed my mind, but I would have guessed at least they’re closed whilst the recce is using them, then open again.Quote:

No matter the surface, the recce goes on in normal traffic.Quote:

Don't know about power stage points.
Is it really that hard finding parking space for more than 50 cars in Monaco?
