Entry-list will be official 29/4
There will be 30 public zones (3 or 4 per stage). Public is allowed just there. But this zones are the best spots to see the rally. With support infraestructures, best road access, better visibility and safety. Some of them have cover of about 1 km of stage.
The only problem, if it is really a problem, is the big amount of public.
Hallo guys...
I’m reading on this forum for while. So now it’s time for my first post (I’m nervous :) ) because we are going to spectate rally Portugal. For me, there are one or two questions about this rally.
In general, rally Portugal is for free? We just need tickets for the super special in Lousada. Is that correct?
So now it’s already sure that spectators are just allowed in those public zones. There are no possibilities to escape from those areas along the special stage? So for what I’m reading, it was maybe a mistake to choose this wrc event to watch. It is quite boring, and not my point of view to follow a rally...but flighttickets, car and hotel is already booked...
..and about the Fafe stage. We planned to watch the rally on the infamous nature stand at the short tarmac part before the jump. What do you estimate is the best time to go there without stuck in a traffic jam, Saturday night?
Exactly the same situation like you bearclaw... Car, hotel booked... And if we have to climb mountains to escape big access, public areas, police etc., we will do it. There will be a lot of people, how could they park everybody in 3 areas per stage...
The north mountains are not that easy to climb, unless you rent a 4x4! This year rally will probably show a massive 4x4 parade. Many of us will be looking for spectators areas alternatives!Quote:

Around special stage start and finish heavy amount of closed roads. Let’s see and wait how things will come. But I guess it will be not a relaxed task to escape from public areas. :)
