Can it be any more clear that it's made up penalty?
Stewards had too many longeros in sauna and somebody came to that idea in the middle of the night?
Had it been Ogier and Kaj Lindström, they would have given the marshal a gazoo cap with a cookie and 50 eur suspended fine..
He didn't rush away at the end of that stage.. the car was damaged and maybe stay away from it if one can't do his job safely..
Rules change - Driver and co-driver must now come out of the car after every stage and get a signed paper that everybody is far from the car.
E: re-watched his stage end and.. wrc official cameraman or what else and a yellow vested marshal were filming Tanaks damaged car when the car was driving awsy. Nobody was screaming or anything.Last edited by TypeR; 2nd August 2025 at 04:14.

Third year in a row 0 points from Finland where it’s been crucial for him to get the points. This can cost the title AGAIN
I have no words.

Seems likely. If Tänak cannot improve road position due to other drivers offs then with that road position is sunday also 0p.

Made up penalty?
Ott hit an official - aggressive driving is for the stage, not the stop control/road section.
This kind of behaviour has to be penalised heavily as otherwise it becomes normalised.
Any other driver would be penalised in the same way for the same behaviour.

5min as engine change penalty for that kind situation is too much. Did Tanak have other offences with Finland marshals before?

As long as we don’t see a video how it rally happened then it’s all speculation
I personally think it’s just a bad moment, like Ott said he didn’t see the Marshall there and that right corner was damaged with sharp objects there and scratched the marshall or smth

I'm shocked that nobody has mentioned Adrian Newey becoming team principal. Will being TP reduce his abilities as the aero guru he is known to be? Or could it become a deadly brew of having enough...
