Sebastien Ogier has been handed a fine for performing celebratory donuts following his RallyRACC win. Full WRC story ⬇️
The eight-time world champion scored his first WRC win since Rally Monza last November after beating Hyundai’s Thierry Neuville by 16.4s on the Spanish asphalt roads.However, WRC stewards have issued the 38-year-old with a reprimand and a 1500 euro fine for breach of the regulations for “exhibition driving” prior to the final podium in Salou.
“The Team Manager stated that the driver saw how one preceding car started with the launch into the podium area and he thought this was an exhibition area prepared to perform doughnuts. The Team Manager apologised for this incident. “This was not the case here, neither in the Supplementary Regulations nor in a Bulletin. The driving behaviour, which the Stewards consider to be “exhibition driving”, did in this case represent an unsafe act.”Stewards also issued a five-second penalty to Hyundai’s Dani Sordo after it was found his Hyundai i20 N performed an illegal hybrid boost during the rally ending powerstage.Rally1 cars are required to regenerate 30kJ of energy before a hybrid boost can administered via the throttle pedal.
“As this problem had never occurred before , the team did not have any idea that this could happen. The Team Manager [Pablo Marcos] stated that this mistake is possible to avoid in the future.
