    Most inexpensive rally to visit? (for a Greek person)

    Hello,

    in the past I have visited Germany, Turkey and Spain for WRC events. For 2023, I am hoping to watch another European WRC rally (except Acropolis Rally obviously) and I am wondering what is the most inexpensive option.

    Croatia? Or Estonia if they reconsider the prices? Portugal?

    Please note that I am not used to pay for access to SS since Greece, Turkey, Spain and Germany rallies (well, I paid to watch from the grandstands) were free to watch.

    Thank you!

    Well it's not Finland.

    and most probably not Sweden because sleeping outside for free isn't possible...

    not overseas because traveling is expensive.

    sleeping outside for free in RallyMonte Carlo is very common....did it since 20 years now and still alive!

    Toss up between Croatia and Sardegna. First can be reached by car while the second is not far away from the sea.

    Sardegna def not cheap. Plane tickets + rental prices in italy. And eating/drinking is not cheap also.
    Couple of years ago it was 300e for tickets and 500€ for car. Apartment across a service park was 800€ for a week. Plus eating ang gas.
    But nevertheless i will go again next year. Good rally to spectate in beginning of summer.
