Jari-Matti Latvala (Ford) sets the best time in the long El Priorat special, finishing the 46km in 25. “The special went well, I had a lot of fun. The set-up suits me, the Fiesta is very different from the Focus. I do beautiful things when I'm comfortable in the car », comments the author of the scratch.

Sébastien Loeb (Citroën) played it cautiously but the Alsatian is only 3??2 behind the Finn. “Latvala surprises me with his speed. I drove well without making any mistakes. »

Sébastien Ogier (Citroën) follows at 8??3 after encountering vibration problems with its brakes. Dani Sordo (Mini) follows the Frenchman at 3??1. “We are a little faster than this morning but it is still difficult when attacking”, comments the Spaniard.

Mikko Hirvonen (Ford) suffered the blow by failing 21 seconds behind his teammate. “I don’t focus on others. I?m trying to be as fast as possible but the times aren?t there?, declares the Finn.

Sébastien Loeb still has a 30-second lead over his direct rival. Mikko Hirvonen will soon be 2 minutes behind the leader of the Rally of Catalonia. Dani Sordo is 37??2 behind the Finnish co-leader.
