Yes and no.
Winter Rally had no access roads to stages.
Winter had only 1 different stage in Friday and Sunday.
Winter rally was held 7-10h drive from big cities where most people live, Jyväskylä is 1-3h drive from those.
So keeping spectators out from Jyväskylä is 100 harder (and more expensive)
Also cost of making Summer Jyväskylä is 5x more than Arctic.
Another thing:
FIA requested this move because looks like Rally Estonia probably needs that slot where Finland was planned. And for weather (road conditions) reasons Estonia can´t be in September-October weekend.
But our Estonian members know way more about Estonia "C19" situation."quattro best 4wd rallycar ever"

There's many factors:
- How many will be vaccinated by then
- Will there be new mutations
- Will the number of cases go down again during the summer
- Will they go up again by October
- What happens when people go on summer vacations and then return to work/school/kindergarten
But as of now the organizers had no chance but to cancel altogether or postpone and hope for the best. Probably also extra time needed to find new title sponsor...

I guess there's even a slight chance that there could be some snow in Jyvaskyla in late September - early October. Or not?

It can snow any day of the year, if so. If it snows, it'd melt right the second it touches the ground. The first snow, which definition is 1 cm of snow at 9AM, happens on October 28 on average in Jyväskylä, later in the South.
Normally early October is good outdoors weather with early mornings +0 to +6 degrees and afternoon around +12 to +20 degrees. If it's sunny, it's perfect for spectating rallying, because not being too cold nor too warm. If it rains, it's just as annoying as rain is on any other time of the year.Photos: rallirinki.kuvat.fi | Twitter: @HartusvuoriWRC

Last round of Ralli SM use to go at that time. Been spectating it and weather is perfect for rallying in late September.

Yes I fear so too, you just need to look at the new cost for tourists to get into Venice and when everyone sees the amount of money being made others will soon follow, and prices will go up. As...
