    I'll be going to Rally Finland this year, my first rally outside of Britain! A couple of nights ago I seemingly got the last cheap flight tickets (now £100 more to book!) and got an exceptionally good value hotel room just south east of Keuruu for five nights, with only one room left there, so I've been lucky so far. I can't wait now!

    Harju is again the super special, driven on Thursday at 18:42 and Friday at 20:30, which indicates a long Friday full of stages, like 2017.

    RG1 will be published weeks later, but what they've told so far is the route this year is 65% different compared to last year - yet only SS Pihlajakoski is identical to 2017, so 65% can't included changes of running direction. 40% are roads not used since 1997.

    New shakedown stage too in Vesala, Kuohu, similar distance from Jyväskylä as is Ruuhimäki.

    Absolutely satisfied with this route. Time schedule is so that doing 3-4 stages a day takes effort, but maybe settling for quality over quantity this year.

    Ok I trust you if you say great but at the first look it seems the stages are too spread out.

    Having a detailed look in an hour.

    I judge the route by how much of a challenge it provides to the competitors = new to spectate for us. On day basis Friday is a bit spread out, others not so. We have to get used to traffic jams again, though this schedule doesn't make such situation what we faced last year on Friday. People trying from Päijälä to Tuohikotanen on Saturday might generate some jams.
