When you drive towards the start of SS2, in Bayons you can go left and leave the main road, then you have a small road you can follow (it runs +- parallel with the main road), and it also leads to the start. Last time we used it in 2017 we got very close to the start. Arrived too late to be allowed to walk on the stage however, we went there after the stage was stopped following Paddon's accident, not knowing yet what exactly happened.
