WRC – Ogier manages in Monte-Carlo, Neuville attacks

By winning the Sisteron-Thoard ES, 13th special of the Rally Monte Carlo, Thierry Neuville (Hyundai) a repris plus de 17 secondes à Andreas Mikkelsen (Volkswagen). Le Norvégien conserve la deuxième place mais ne dispose plus que de 12 »5 d’avance sur le vic-champion 2013 au soir de la troisième étape.

At the head of the event, Sébastien Ogier maintains a two-minute lead over Andreas Mikkelsen following the abandonment of Kris Meeke (Citroën) which followed that of Jari-Matti Latvala (Volkswagen).

Bryan Bouffier (Ford) retired on the way back to Monaco after breaking the left-rear suspension arm of his Fiesta RS WRC in SS13. The Frenchman could not benefit from assistance this evening, the cars being taken directly to the parc ferme.

By taking 45 seconds from Ott Tänak (Ford) in SS13, Dani Sordo (Hyundai) is only two seconds behind the Estonian's seventh place.

Elfyn Evans (Fiesta R5) and Armin Kremer (Skoda Fabia R5) still complete the top ten by leading WRC 2 ahead of Quentin Gilbert (DS 3 R5).

The final stage of the Monte-Carlo Rally will begin tomorrow from 9:08 a.m.
