DECISION BULLETIN
Secto Rally Finland
01 August 2026
The Stewards remind all parties that this document carries no legal weight, moral authority, or basis in fact, and proceed as follows:
Fact
Adrien Fourmaux loses a podium position and roughly ninety seconds to torrential rain on Friday afternoon, while Sébastien Ogier navigates the exact same downpour to extend his lead to 16.3 seconds
Decision
The Stewards have reviewed Friday afternoon's weather and can confirm that rain, unlike most rivals in the World Rally Championship, does not appear to check anyone's championship position before deciding who to punish. Fourmaux is reminded that a podium spot secured in dry conditions is, legally speaking, only a suggestion once the sky changes its mind. Ogier and Ingrassia, meanwhile, are commended for driving through standing water and disappearing visibility as though it were a mildly inconvenient commute.
