General classification after SS10
Tänak is satisfied with the second fastest time of SS10, 1″7 behind Ogier. 12'46″1 for the Estonian who has no worries regarding the general classification. He is still in the lead and more than 40 seconds ahead of Ogier, his new runner-up.
Big poor performance for Sordo who lost his 2nd place overall to the detriment of Ogier. The Spaniard finished this special in 12'54″2, 9″8 from the lead. He is now 2″3 behind the Frenchman
The times continue to fall. After Neuville and Evans, it is Ogier who improves the best mark of this SS10. The Habs crossed the line in 12'44″4, 3″9 faster than Evans
Evans immediately erases Neuville's mark. He only improved by a second but it was enough to take the lead temporarily. 12'48″3 for the Welshman
It's confirmed. Neuville takes the lead after leading Rovanperä by 13″4 in this SS10. With a time of 12'49″3, he is the first under the 13 minute mark
Neuville easy in this special. The Belgian should, barring any surprises, take control of SS10
Small disappointment for Katsuta who was tied with Rovanperä after the 4th sector. The Japanese finally hit a stone in the last part of the special which caused him to lose a little time. 13'03″9 for the Toyota driver who finished 1″2 behind his teammate
Loubet finished far behind Rovanperä on his passage in this SS10. 12″9 behind the Finn for the Frenchman who crossed the line in 13’15″6
Greensmith slots himself between Rovanperä and Suninen with a time of 13'09″6, 6″9 from the lead of SS10
Rovanperä immediately improves Suninen's mark. The Finn temporarily takes the lead with a time of 13'02″7. He was 10″2 faster than his compatriot
Suninen is the first to complete the longest special stage of the weekend. 13'12″9 for the M-Sport driver at the finish
Only 4 tenths separate Rovanperä and Suninen after the first sector with an advantage for the first city
With 22,08 kilometers to cover, SS10 is the longest of this Rally Italy. Very narrow, it requires a lot of effort from competitors and above all concentration
Rovanperä is also on the road to SS10. The Finn is no longer in contention for victory but is looking to regain his confidence after the misfortunes in Croatia, Portugal and here in Italy
Let's go for SS10! Suninen leads the way
The start of SS10 is scheduled for 9:08 a.m.
