Lancia fields five Ypsilon Rally2 cars for 2026 Rally Finland WRC2 showdown

Lancia will enter five Ypsilon Rally2 HF Integrale cars in the 2026 Rally Finland, a key WRC2 event, aiming to secure valuable team points and gather high‑speed performance data. The official line‑up includes drivers Yohan Rossel with co‑driver Arnaud Dunand and Nikolay Gryazin with Konstantin Aleksandrov, supported by Léo Rossel, Pablo Sarrazin and the American‑Italian crew Conner Martell‑Alessandro Gelsomino.

In the Italian national series, Lancia’s Ypsilon dominates the entry list for the Rally Regione Piemonte, with 27 Ypsilon cars – about 43% of the total field – competing across various classifications. The strong presence underscores the model’s popularity among privateer crews and the brand’s focus on rally development.

Both programs are intended to test the Ypsilon’s handling on demanding terrain, refine its engineering, and improve Lancia’s standing in the WRC2 championship.
