After a short, saving break for the crews, the race resumed its frenetic pace. Unhappy since his scratch on SS8, Loeb left with the knife between his teeth after the break. The Alsatian struck a major blow and relegated his rivals to almost 6??. He concluded this loop with an excellent time, 9:35??3. For once, Latvala gets the better of his teammate and leader of the Rally from Sweden. “ It?s very very slippery, but the snow suits my riding style perfectly », admitted the Ford driver. He finished 6??5 behind Loeb and ahead Sébastien Ogier of 0??2. The two official Citroën DS3s seem more at ease than this morning.

Trailing Petter Solberg by 0??1, Hirvonen (+12??3) further increased his lead over Mads Ostberg, 8th in the special with 24??6 behind.
