What to expect from the track
Finland is the fastest rally on the calendar and the crests mean cars are airborne as often as they are cornering. Jyvaskyla hosts the service park, and the Ouninpohja stage remains the one every driver wants to win.

Fan tips for the weekend
Small things that make a long race day go smoothly.
- The city-centre Harju stage is the easiest one to watch on foot.
- Forest stages need insect repellent in midsummer.
- Sit well back from the road on a crest, because cars genuinely fly here.
