The problem with your reasoning is that you use different rules for different people.
IMO the rules have to be the same for everyone and you cannot allow yourself to biased judgement such as
"he is not a professional rally driver so there is no real benefit for him to dope".
Where do draw the line for when it is a benefit and where do you draw the line for when it is not a benefit to use it?
Where do you draw the line for whom it is ok to use it and for whom it is not ok to use?
ALL rules have to be the same for everyone, professional or amateur otherwise there is no point in having rules at all.
