Adrien Fourmaux eyes maiden victory at Rally Sweden

Adrien Fourmaux heads to Rally Sweden next month with renewed ambition following a standout performance at the Rallye Monte-Carlo season opener. As the leading Hyundai finisher, the Frenchman secured 17 championship points, highlighted by two stage wins and a strong showing in the Super Sunday classification.

While Fourmaux acknowledges that the Hyundai i20 N Rally1 excels on clean, flat tarmac, he remains cautious regarding the car's handling on unpredictable surfaces. He noted that his progress in Monte-Carlo was encouraging, though he fell just short of a podium finish. The Frenchman expressed motivation after witnessing Oliver Solberg’s breakthrough victory, which he believes proves that the established favorites are beatable.

Looking toward the snowy conditions in Sweden, Fourmaux is optimistic about his prospects. He previously demonstrated competitive pace at the venue in 2024 and is eager to replicate the success seen from his peers in the opening round. Having learned from past mistakes in Sweden, he is focused on securing his first top-step finish in the championship.
