In Killeri Rallysprint two cars run on adjacent lanes in each heat. All competitors first participated in qualifying runs against the clock. The fastest eight from each category then proceeded into elimination run-offs, with the winners eventually pitched in a duel in the finals.

In the finals Gronholm drove against the four time national champion Tomi Hallia.

-It´s always nice to win in Jyvaskyla. This was fun and the competition was exciting. I didn´t make any mistakes so this was a very positive surprise, said Gronholm.
