I know what you mean about the crowds. I was lucky enough to get a copy of Portugal 86 on video for xmas, and I was appauled at the footage of Joachim Santos in the RS200 plunging into the crowd (who were ridiculously standing on the outside of the bend). The coverage of the incident was just too graphic for my liking. Quite upsetting in fact.
It was this incident that caused the top teams to retire from that particular rally, and was no doubt a catalyst, apart from the death of the great Henri Toivenen and his co driver (Sergio Cresta I think), in the decision that pulled the plug on Group B.
