Hopefully they will have some rule how to drive through that chicane at the end. Neuville won quite a bit of time by cutting each of the barriers while others have taken it cleanly.
Here in CZ we have a rule which gives fixed penatlies for moving the barrel/tyre column outside of it's base (5 seconds) or even higher penalty for braking straight through (30 seconds). I think that it's not that bad rule.
Dates for Round 1 of the 2026 European Rally Championship are 17th-19th April.
