1. The ACP restritions are, in same cases, excessive but cannot be considered the main factor for the lack of spectators at this year event.
2. A lot of spectators (40 to 50%) of the Rali de Portugal are people that don't usually follow the sport. For them ours WRC event is the only rally they see and they do it because it's well knowned that WRC is a great show to watch (remember we all had almost 30 years of experience!!!). This year, when they heard IRC, no bell have ringed...
3. Even for the more interested ones (the other half) the absence of the "wrc party factor" made a lot harder their job of convincig wifes and bosses of the imperial necessity to go...
4. So because less people were going, there was fewer "cut expenses" opportunites. Algarve it's a bit distance and expensive to the Northern fans (the most entusiasts) and Portugal's economical environment is getting worse every day (only our PM have a different opinion!).
All this considered, I hope next year IRC event will be disputed at the North region (Arganil would be perfect), keeping the most popular and mediatic WRC rally at the Algarve mokin:Rally addict since 1982
