The sealing profile includes first and second sealing sides with the first and second sealing sides each forming part of a first and second continuous sealing surface for contacting the two mating surfaces. The sealing profile also includes an inner side and an outer side, with at least one of the elongated longitudinal sections provided with at least one tolerance compensation zone. The tolerance compensation zone is formed by a narrowed bridge portion spanning a width of the sealing profile from the inner side to the outer side of the sealing profile and forming part of the first and second continuous sealing surface, wherein the at least one elongated longitudinal section is not stabilized by a rigid part.
