The first special of Rally Monte-Carlo 2019 saw Ott Tänak (Toyota) signer le premier scratch de la saison en 11’24″5. Le pilote de l’écurie japonaise a devancé son équipier Kris Meeke, parti sur un choix de pneus (4 cloutés) identique.
Sébastien Ogier (Citroën) is the closest of the two Toyota riders at 10″6, the world champion having also left with nails. Behind the former Volkswagen driver, the gaps are greater, since Sébastien Loeb (Hyundai), lui aussi en clous, a concédé 23″2 sur Tänak.
Thierry Neuville (Hyundai), author of a different selection of tires before the start of this SS, loses 26″8, but should benefit from its soft tires in SS2.
Suivent Elfyn Evans (M-Sport Ford) à 32″3, Esapekka Lappi (Citroën) à 32″7, Jari-Matti Latvala (Toyota) à 35″4 et Andreas Mikkelsen (Hyundai) à 37″. Le Norvégien a cru avoir franchi la ligne un kilomètre avant l’arrivée et avait levé le pied pendant quelques secondes.
Pontus Tidemand (M-Sport Ford) completes the ranking of WRC at 52″2. A ranking from which Teemu Suninen is absent, having gone off the road with his Ford Fiesta – M-Sport Ford.
