Not the same at all as in Rovaniemi they already have personel ready and the pure will to do it. And I'd say many sponsors of Arctic Rally will join in February too.
Same opinion of 'the event in Lapland if somewhere in Finland'. Road closing is much easier in North than in other parts of FIN.

Also another important factor is that this would be the easiest event in Finland to be ran without spectators (if that will be the case) , some stages in Arctic rally have basically zero mid stage access, and very few have more than a handful. So really easy to restrict it compared to for instance Jyväskylä

A newspaper interviewed today Markus Häkkinen, who is the CEO of AKK (the finnish main ASN). He said the schedule is tight since obtaining permissions to public state-maintained roads takes a month, with another month reserved for complaints. Private-maintained roads can be obtained with less bureaucray, but it's usually not a simple task either.
But there's still two months until mid-February, just need to get planning ASAP.

well, that´s a good summary. Unfortenately it seems true, what happens. Just like Fredrik writtens.
Since many years SBF is a rotten organization. With disagreements and conflicts in the board of directors since many years."Reis vas pät pat kaar vas kut"
Tommi Mäkinen, back in the years...

Haven't read the article but seems like another town on the north east coast "Skellefteå" is interested in the rally.
Hopefully it won't end like when Norway tried to get the winter olympics back and several cities were arguing about who would be the best, in the end nothing happened.

Maybe it is connected with new shareholder? SBF (Swedish Association) and Uvåns näringslivscenter made finally an agreement to avoid the bankruptcy of Svenska Rally AB. But they want to find third party according to Swedish TV.

I am from Gran Canaria. I am absolutely convinced that there will be no problem with the rally.
