Note that stages Leustu and Surkee are being driven in reversed form.
Pretty straight-forward route this year...

Hard earned points from Power Stage, I must salute NORF organisers!
Awesome!!!
When Petter won the stage in 2004 stage length was 33,24 km He sat a time 15:18,5 130.28 km/h
The stage was run again in full length in 2007 now as 33,01 km and I sort of remember they had put chicanes in it?
Anyway , Marcus Gronholm did it in 15:19,8 129.20 km/h
So what will be Powerstage winners time?? :)
I can see some serious traffic jams when everybody is heading to Ouninpohja on Saturday afternoon. But still good to see Ouni is back!Quote:

I remember hearing some stories some year(s) ago that they planned to do some work on the Ouninpohja road, meaning after the work the road would be a bit slower since you couldn´t cut the corners so easily. Don´t know if they have done those modifications but I´d assume so, since the stage is back in the schedule this year.
So it might not be 100% match to the one Petter drove his record in, but hella fast nevertheless. And corners are meant for cutting, no matter what they do with the road.
Good point. The beginning of Ouninpohja was completely renewed in these years when it wasn't driven. Maybe it's a bit slower but I don't think very much...Quote:
