Before the rally officially begins, competitors have the chance to get into the rhythm during the shakedown stage. Here, spectators can enjoy the legendary high-speed jump on the Ruuhimäki public road. The popular jump near the finish area also attracts large crowds year after year—and for good reason. From the same location, you can see both the start and the finish, allowing you to follow the action from beginning to end without moving. This is where the rally atmosphere truly begins, and competitors will drive the stage multiple times.
