World RX – Mattias Ekström winner at home

Mattias Ekström won the Höljes final to win at home ahead of Andreas Bakkerud and Petter Solberg. The Audi driver who usually officiates in DTM won his semi-final to qualify and finally won by half a second over his closest opponent. The 2003 world champion WRC therefore completes the podium after having won third in the semi-final. Reinis Nitiss ranks fourth and maintains the lead with nine points ahead of the star of the rally.

Liam Doran completed the top five in the final ahead of Sebastian Eriksson who fought for victory before suffering a puncture. Jacques Villeneuve again missed the semi-finals by taking 17th place while Davy Jeanney ranked 23rd.
