Hopefully the new Ypsilon looks better than this:

The portion of the rear half that was visible above water doesn’t look to bad, hopefully it’ll not look dreadful from the front

So, to make it clear, Lancia will build an Ypsilon Rally2 to enter the WRC 2025 when Rally2 will be the top category?

Yes, with Martini as title sponsor and Alessandro Fiorio as team principal. The junior team will be run by Astra Racing and sponsored by Giesse, Agip and Totip

You forgot to mention that Miki Biasion and Andrea Aghini are already testing the new car somewhere in the Italian Alps Originally Posted by HKSjbg

I think it's important that Stellantis Board made a step for the brand towards the WRC, returning to where it belongs. Also the "tribute" to Stratos in their road car is another important step. It's probably a project dedicated to customer racing, but it's a first attempt after so many years.

It was an intended mish-mash of the non-Martini Lancias Originally Posted by focus206

Even I can see that, as there's no obligation to enter WRC and do all the rallies. FIA are looking for more WRC manufs/constructor/team entrants, so it's obvious what they will have to do to Rally2....
