Rally Route

Organisers have continued their recent policy of ringing the changes and more than 30 per cent of this year's route has changed, including three all-new special stages.  However, the traditional central Finland base of Jyväskylä remains, along with the central service park at the town's Paviljonki exhibition area.  After the traditional Thursday evening super special stage at the town's Killeri trotting track, Friday's action is based north-west of the city, ending with a second pass at Killeri.  Saturday's leg contains almost half the rally's competitive distance and takes drivers south-west for two loops near the town of Jämsä, before a late afternoon cluster of tests near Mänttä.  Missing from the middle leg is the awesome Ouninpohja, a roller-coaster section of road full of sweeping bends and jumps and regarded as one of the sport's ultimate tests of skill and bravery.  The short final leg covers four tests east of Jyväskylä.  Drivers face 345.15km of competition in a 1449.61km route.
