I will be navigating this Lancia through the Sea Alps in early February 2018.

Anyone else from this forum participating?

Well Rolando, this rally always takes place in the Alpes Maritimes and usually stages are situated in the mountains not far from Nice/Menton.
Check the internet for previous rallies and you will get an idea of which area the rally takes place.
Actually this is the part of France where I live during the spring and summer months 8)
