Neuville resists Tänak in Argentina

Thierry Neuville (Hyundai) a résisté aux assauts d’Ott Tänak (Toyota) dans le premier passage de la deuxième étape du Rally from Argentina. The Belgian was able to maintain a little more than 6 seconds ahead of the Estonian, author of two scratches in the morning compared to one for the leader of the event.

Sébastien Ogier (Citroën) did his best to keep pace until he damaged his power steering on SS11. The six-time champion WRC subsequently lost a lot of time and fell beyond the Top 5 now completed by Andreas Mikkelsen (Hyundai), Kris Meeke (Toyota) and Dani Sordo (Hyundai).

Elfyn Evans (M-Sport) défendait sa 6e place lorsque le Gallois est parti en tonneau dans l’ES10. L’équipage est indemne, mais le pilote était pessimiste sur ses chances de repartir en Rally 2 ce dimanche.
