Croatia, SS2 – Puncture for Ogier and Rovanperä!

Between Pirelli and Sébastien Ogier, it’s a tumultuous relationship. The Frenchman is the only one to dare to criticize the Italian manufacturer, and had to make an effort to contain himself at the end of this SS2 at Rally of Croatia 2023 where he lost 1'30" on Thierry Neuville (Hyundai) en raison d’une crevaison.

“I really avoided the rope!” And yet, we still had a flat tire. What more can I do? » laments the eight-time world champion.

Son équipier Kalle Rovanperä (Toyota) a également crevé son pneu avant gauche au même endroit et a perdu un peu plus de 2 minutes sur Neuville.

Thierry Neuville takes the lead in the Croatia Rally but the Belgian suffered a big scare at the end of the special. The Hyundai missed a chicane and hit a straw bale on the right front.

In WRC2, Emil Lindholm (Skoda, gearbox), Gus Greensmith (Skoda, exit) and Adrien fourmaux (Ford, mechanical), lets the Frenchman Yohan Rossel (Citroën) escape in the lead.
