I just had a look at website of this year's Rallye San Remo. It looks like organisers want to make a rallysprint out of this race. They will have only 9 special stages with a total of only 201,79 Kms. :(
This must be one of the shortest editions ever of Rallye San Remo. :D
I think that it's because of Italian agreement about making CIR rallys shorter this year...
Yes, that might be true, but it still seems a short rally San Remo to me. :(Quote:

Then they drove on thursday evening (4), friday morning and saturday untill noon? I think this year it will be more "compact" then?
But still not interseting to go & see is my opinion...
Last year they did drive more stage's and more kms. Only the long stage last year was allready 65 Kms instead of the 45 of this year, but also the other stages were more and longer. :D It is too little number of stages to go and watch, i will follow it from behind my PC. :DQuote:

All I need is a map of the stages and times and any advice on where the good spots are.
Cheers Jamie
Jamie, take a look at official website, under competitors. There you can find a timing and also maps of the special stages. You have to consider tough that there will be only 9 SS, wich is really very little, don't you agree? But if you are in Marseille, it is not so far ofcourse. :)Quote:

I'll be waiting for you and all forumers in Press Room ;)Quote:

As Sanremo is IRC, you don't need a Press Pass. All access are open, not like in WRC ;)Quote:

I would expect to see the A-Style Fabia compete on Sanremo too, maybe Travaglia?

He is Peugeot Sport test driver. His testing doesn't mean that he is driving Sanremo. But who knows...
Is that the P Sport test car that Sarrazin is driving (370 DXE 78)?Quote:
