Like said before.. haven't seen so many ,,fully off the rim'' tyres before.. seems easier than at a tyre workshop

Really good photo + is it a front left puncture also?

To me it's quite a big mess/fail by Pirelli.. so much was decided by just tyres..

there is a link at dirtfish at this topic,which shows that this year there was just 1 more puncture than the least years michelins for 4wd cars (20 vs 21)

strange as it may seem, Pirelli stated that they got just +1 puncture compared to Michelin last Monte.

Maybe they count WRC2 as well because I don't recall any punctures for the top drivers in 2020

A lot more punctures in 2019, but at least the Toyota punctures were caused by their rims breaking.

Yes, they count all 4wd cars.
It's quite normal to have more punctures while using snow tires as sidewalls are weaker in those tires. Also some of the stages were not typical Monte ones, with possibility of deep (muddy) cuts where it's much easier to damage the tire.

But Terenzio forgot to mention that this year's event was shorter (don't know exactly how much). And I also don't know the total amount of 4wd on each event...

This year they seemed to have snow tires in the mix for every section. Previous years were often with slicks. Just my impression. Similarly I agree there seemed to be more cuts.

as br21 stated,while there was shorter,there was more stages with the more prone for puncture snow tyres,compared to last year.

What about the icy stages? We had quite few of them.
