    Good to see, its a great stage but its massively overhyped. Couldn't go 5 minutes of coverage last year without one of the commentators mentioning how excited they were for Sunday, felt a bit forced at times.

    Rallying is about exploring new roads and challenges, nice that the organisers are mixing things up.

    Dropping the most famous stage across rally world and keep those who are not even good like Harju because mixing things up. They could keep Ouninpohja and drop everything else.

    Super special stages do have their places in the itinerary. And it's not like the first time Ouninpohja isn't part of the route.

    Personally find it more annoying when the route changes are cosmetic.
    Never stop dreaming because one day it might happen.

    Does Rally Finland always announce the route so early?

    I'm waiting for the Rally Portugal one, which is two months before Finland. It's quite frustrating when you are trying to plan your trip.

    If I remember correctly, they used to announce the route at the end of February or early Mars. It´s early but sooo nice...

    The itinerary for Portugal is supposed to come in a couple of weeks.

    Official maps and spectator areas usually come only 2 weeks before the rally.
