After investigating the issue, stewards removed the 22 points Ogier and Ingrassia gained from the rally and the 18 earned by their M-Sport Ford team. The penalty was suspended, meaning it will only be applied if the pair repeat the offence before the end of the season. They were also fined 10,000 Euros. The decision means Ogier remains 27 points adrift of rally winner Thierry Neuville with six rounds remaining.The timecard 😲 Ogier / Ingrassia forgot to pick up the timecard after SS19 - which is required to check in the final Stage SS20!
