2004 Marcus Gronholm
Last to triumph in Finland was local boy Jari-Matti Latvala
The Service park and Rally HQ are in the Paviljonki Area of the city where there is always an amazing atmosphere thanks to the crowds of people .
Following Shakedown on Thursday morning, the 315kms of stages begin with three stages on Thursday afternoon. Eight stages on Friday are split by a lunchtime remote service in Lahti. The five stages on Saturday morning are repeated after service on Saturday afternoon followed by the final Power Stage which will be broadcast live on TV and offers additional Championship points for the fastest three drivers.
More than 1/3 of the stages are new, more than 100 competitive kilometres which may help non-finns who have only won the event 7 times in 60 years.
Rally Finland also marks the return of the Mini WRT for a second go at fighting with the wrc stars, we'll see this weekend if all the testing and preparing has paid off for Kris and Dani.
A record 21 new-generation World Rally Cars will do battle in Finland with seven home-grown talents among that number.
So whos going to win?
