Latvala: “Not the fastest”

Jari-Matti Latvala (Ford Focus WRC) won, this Sunday, the Rally from New Zealand, having taken the lead in the general classification at the end of the last special. The Finnish driver, having benefited from the errors of the Citroën C4 WRC drivers, did not need to achieve the slightest best time all weekend. It was the regularity that paid off. “ I wasn?t the fastest here, confirms Latvala. But I was consistent and it counted when it mattered. It was a fantastic rally on the most beautiful roads in the world. I have to continue to do the work I do as a second driver because my strategy is working. »
