A costly SS3 for Patrick Enok and Silver Simm: around 1m45s lost against Kris Meeke’s blistering benchmark. ⏱️

What a stage! 🔥 Meeke held the benchmark for ages from first on the road, finishing fifth on SS2.

Sesks beats Korhonen by 0.6s and now leads him by 2.0s overall.

“Testing the future today.” 👀

After Paddon and Meeke, Fourmaux is testing Hyundai’s i20 N Rally2 Step 3.

Amid speculation over his next move, that caption gets attention—but confirms neither his 2027 seat nor a WRC Kit programme.

Jon Armstrong and Shane Byrne are parting ways ahead of 2027.

Their two years together brought wins at Rali Ceredigion and Rally Croatia, plus a step up to WRC Rally1.

Armstrong called it a difficult decision. Neither has revealed their next move. 🏁

Kris Meeke has tested Hyundai’s i20 N Rally2 in Finland. 🔧

WRC27 speculation is growing, but no complete WRC Kit was seen during early-week running. It’s worth remembering that Hyundai previously ruled out homologating one.

Rally2 development is real. A top-class programme isn’t confirmed.

Sanremo’s ERC return will have to wait. 🇮🇹

Organiser Sergio Maiga says the 2027 slot has gone to Sardinia and that he learned the news the day before the rally.

A bid that fell through—not a confirmed round being cancelled.

“No excuses from 2029 onwards.”

Malcolm Wilson says M-Sport’s last five rally car designs won on debut. He wants Ford’s all-new 2029 WRC challenger to do the same—with full factory backing returning in 2028. 🏁

Fourmaux is open to a year in slower machinery—but wants a swift Rally1 return. 👀

A reunion with M-Sport is strongly linked, yet no deal is confirmed. Ford’s timeline: kit in 2027, full factory backing in 2028, new car in 2029.

First kilometres for the Ford Fiesta Rally2 with its 2027 Rally2-WRC-Kit. 🤩

That rear wing is hard to miss. M-Sport’s next chapter is taking shape—but how will the Fiesta stack up against the new WRC27 cars?
