Thierry Neuville (Hyundai) est resté dans le rythme dans Torntorp, l’ES9 du Rally of Sweden, finishing almost eight seconds behind the scratch ofOtt Tänak (Toyota) qui a bouclé la spéciale de 19,88km en 10’02 »0. Mais le Belge semble avoir rencontré un problème de palettes, étant obligé de passer ses rapports avec le levier. Hyundai a affirmé qu’il ignorait d’où venait le problème.

Craig Breen (Citroën) was closest to the scratch, four seconds behind, just ahead of Jari-Matti Latvala (Toyota). Esapekka Lappi (Toyota) followed seven seconds behind.
