Sébastien Ogier (Citroën) takes a second from Dani Sordo (Mini) in the second pass of Bischwiller. “The road was cleaner than this morning and there was no mist”, comments the leader of Rally from France-Alsace.

The hard tires seem to favor the Citroën driver, according to Dani Sordo. “I deviated a little from the optimal trajectory on the gravel, Sébastien Ogier seems to have taken the right tires”, analyzes the Spaniard. The challenger only has 10,61km left to catch Sébastien Ogier before competing in the Haguenau Power Stage (4,2km).

Jari-Matti Latvala (Ford) once again takes the scratch in Biscwiller with a time of 2:47:2 where he is ahead of the leader by a tenth. The Flying Finn will be able to regret his mistake in SS19 which deprived him of a battle with Petter Solberg (Citroën).

The Norwegian fails at 2??9 of the Ford driver's time while Mikko Hirvonen continues to deliver by failing at 4??6. “It's not too bad, there was less dust than this morning, but I'm worried after hearing a big noise when grabbing a rope”, explains the private pilot of the DS3 WRC.
