Right....
Does anyone have the co-ordinates for the spectator viewing points (or best places to view) for all stages??
If so, please can you share and I will create a Point of Intrest file for my tom tom and I will upload the files to share.
It makes it some much easier to plan routes etc then.
Cheers
Rick

Like Henrii6 above, Rallye Deutschland will be my first WRC event. I'm an American living in Germany about an hour south of Trier. Since this is likely to be the only WRC event I get to attend before I leave Europe, I'd like to do it right. Got a couple newbie questions, though:
Is it possible to get one day passes, instead of the full event pass on the ADAC site? How or where would I get one? I only have one (maybe two) days I can attend because of work.
Is there a Beginner's Guide to being a Rally Spectator somewhere that might answer the questions below (and more)?
I understand we have to stay in the approved areas for our and the drivers' safety, but how do we know where the approved spectator areas are?
How long do you typically remain at one stage before heading to another? Do you have to drive yourself to the next spectator area or are there buses?
Thanks for any and all help.

2) Buy on the homepage your Rally-programme, all the infos about the stages and spectator-points are inside. “Rally-programme"
3) See point 1, if you change the stage, you have to pay again for the new stage. So maybe just plan to change to another spec-point on your stage.

2 - I tend to do a stage, then off to another stage which we have planned to do,
Trying to get in 2 oer even 3 stages..
All this is done via us driving.
A lot of companies will do a tour but will tend to only do a stage a day, (if the cars run through it twice..)
Take a look at Rally Travel for ideas.

Friday: Panorama-road Piesport
49°53'21.36'' N
6°55'48.80'' E
Saturday: Panzerplatte
49°38'34.48'' N
7°19'20.50'' E
Sunday: Galeria Dhrontal
49°51'12.20 N
6°55'50.25 E
These are the most interesting spots for someone who has never visited Rallye Deutschland.
Greetings to Yorkshire!
(Memories are coming up from long times ago, when we were rallying through Langdale, Wykeham and Dalby Forest during the old Lombard RAC Rally.)
kind regards
Christoph

In regards to the TICKETS, would you advise to buy in advance or buy when we get there ? (would be looking at getting the silver passess.)
Thanks

I hope he uses his head and of course his right foot to go flat out!Post your own splits on the net: find RallyStopwatch on the Google Play Store.

I suspect that if FIA continues down this route, then Hyundai won't need to develop a new car, because they won't be in the WRC> It really is a stupid strategy of the FIA to spend more money on...
