When could we have maps for this rally, and Croatia WRC on rally-maps.com?

[AnttiL]

Well, when they publish something The website says Sardegna maps should be out at the beginning of May. For Croatia, it should be 21th March so next week.

Hi all!
My wife and I are going for the first time to Sardegna. Really looking forward to it as it's my first gravel event.
I believe this rally is free of charge for spectators?
If you guys have some nice spots, lets say within 30min walk from the parking, please let me know (if possible with GPS coordinates).
Thank you,
Glenn

Hi Glenn, I went in 2018, it is free to spectators but if you can afford a gold pass it's worth it's weight in gold if you want priority parking without walking kms uphill in the Sardinian sun just to get to the stage, or be sure to get to the stages very early. I drove past kms of cars on some stages and I aim to get there early. Check if this is still the case and you might only need one for this purpose but will need one pass per person to use the viewing zones, a bonus on the parking really. Not really needed if you want to pick your own spot anyway. I perched in one zone at the powerstage which was heaving everywhere and I found it all to be a bit meh, gold or no gold.

As for viewing there was a spot on Monti di Ala I found in 2018 where you could see the cars continuously for a couple of minutes, from a spec in the distance to right past you. I imagine from the top of the hill you could see the other way too which would be ridiculous but I didn't feel the need to find out, I was happy. They cut some of it out in recent years so best wait for the route to be published to check/decide, but that was in the general area of 40.654271,9.244137. General pic:
