I was at Monte too this year. For spectating it was quite good. Seen 9 stages (normally 10 if Turini wasn't cancelled in the 2nd run) and the atmosphere was nice. Being able to lock in between SS1 and 3 on the first leg was a big plus this year, also the 50km stage had the advantage that, if you were near the start, you could combine it with the stage run just after it. The most spectacular things (for me) were fast turns on tarmac. The speed on snow/ice/slush wasn't big enough, especially when they were on the wrong tires, also on Turini it was visible (in first loop already) that it was just fighting to survive for. We were on the downhill after the public area in first run, and I must say it was a bit disappointing to me.

I don't think about going back next year, maybe better to discover some new events...
