The action took place in SS4. The Ford Puma Rally1Adrien fourmaux and Alexandre Coria came back all schuss on the Hyundai i20 injuredOtt Tänak. After smashing the front of his car against a wall of snow, the Estonian tried to escape in slow motion and the French were not informed of this. The pilot M-Sport however, saw the obstacle early enough to cut his speed a little. He knew how to have the necessary reflex and benefited from a touch of luck, because the path was just wide enough at this point to allow two Rally1s to share it. These impressive images were also frightening in retrospect when remembering the 2003 accident between the two 206 WRC by Harri Rovanperä and Juuso Pykälistö. A few months ago, with the lack of success mixed with too much haste, Fourmaux would undoubtedly have struck out with the Korean, offering one more spectacular clip to his collection. This time everything was aligned and he didn't let himself be distracted
