Lancia Ypsilon Rally2 campaign 2026
Entities: Yohan Rossel · Ypsilon Rally2 HF Integrale · Nikolay Gryazin · Rally Piemonte · Rally Finland
Overview
The campaign kicked off in early July with a record‑breaking entry of Ypsilon rally cars at the Rally di Roma Capitale. By month‑end Lancia expanded its effort, fielding five Ypsilon Rally2 HF Integrale cars in the WRC2 class at the Rally Finland. The lineup included drivers Yohan Rossel (co‑driver Arnaud Dunand) and Nikolay Gryazin (co‑driver Konstantin Aleksandrov) together with teammates Léo Rossel, Pablo Sarrazin and the Conner Martell‑Alessandro Gelsomino crew. The Finnish round is aimed at securing team points and gathering high‑speed performance data.
Concurrently, Lancia reinforced its domestic presence, entering 27 Ypsilon cars in the Rally Regione Piemonte—about 43 % of the Italian championship field—and supporting the Lancia Trofeo competition. The dual‑track strategy uses both international and national events to refine the Ypsilon’s handling, engineering and standing in the WRC2 championship.
