Neste Oil Rally 2006 (WRC)
Hirvivuori Manor accommodated WRC driver GIGI GALLI with his co-driver JOHN BERNACCHINI and the BSA Team during the Neste Oil Rally. Gigi and John drove successfully and got the 5th place in the rally. Congratulations to Gigi and the team, and let's hope that next year he'll top the record for the longest jump of the rally that at the moment is 55,5 meters.

Neste Rally Finland 05(WRC)
You can easily access one of Central Finland's biggest summer events, Neste Rally Finland, from Hirvivuori. Our manor is only 3 km from the route of Vellipohja special stage (33,3 km). We rent parking space for caravans and RVs and we also provide good landing area for helicopters.
Hirvivuori co-operates with Jyväskylään Ltd, an official partner of Neste Rally Finland. |
 |
2005 we had a special Neste Rally guest staying at Hirvivuori:
Fabrizio de Sanctis with his wife Yvonne, his co-driver Juri Rosignoli and his car technicians.
Fabrizio's car was numbered 84 and he had decorated it with a relevant message as seen in the picture;
this year's rally in Jyväskylä is no less than the 20th that Fabrizio has participated in.
At the same time he and his wife were enjoying the peaceful countryside and the Finnish nature,
which he appreciates greatly. We at Hirvivuori thank him and his crew for choosing our services
and wish them good luck in the rally.
