Simon Tiger ended his 2025 season early with two competition weekends remaining due to engine problems, and overspent his budget by half a million kronor, according to Kuriren. Despite the setback, Tiger told Kuriren he plans to reclaim the RallyX title next season, adding that his competitors have had an easy ride so far, a Swedish idiom suggesting they faced little challenge, though the exact cause of the engine issues, the new season's start date, and his main rivals remain undisclosed.
