SS17 standings
General classification after SS17
No big attack for this first special of the day from the rally leader. Ogier finished 4″8 behind Evans with a time of 8’50″2
Evans doesn't care about preserving his tires. Best time of the special while waiting for Ogier to pass for the Welshman in 8'45″4, 3″5 faster than Tänak
“I had a tricky stage. It’s the same thing again, I can’t go any faster unless I push hard,” laments Neuville at the finish.
8'56″4 for Neuville who finished 7″4 behind Tänak's mark in this SS17
Presumably, most drivers want to save their tires for the Power Stage. Katsuta's time of 9'31″1 to Tänak's 42″2 proves it again
Sordo also quietly this Sunday morning. He crossed the line in 9'13″1 to 24″2 behind Tänak
The road is very gray towards the finish of the special. Rain could come for this last day
No cruising speed for Tänak who signs the best temporary time 8'48″9, 10″6 ahead of Greensmith
Rovanperä smoothly in this SS17. Without pushing too much, or even without pushing at all, the Finn finished 47 seconds behind Greensmith with a time of 9'46″5
Without much delay, Greensmith improves on Suninen's mark. 8'59″5 for the Englishman who was 12″3 faster than the Finn
Absent from the 2nd loop on Saturday, Tänak is at the start of this Sunday. Out of the race for victory, the Estonian aims for a few more points during the Power Stage
First special of the morning completed in 9'11″8 for Suninen who is the first to pass this Sunday morning
Here is the route of SS17 (15,25 km)
The M-Sport squad is on the road since Greensmith has just left
The last day has begun! Suninen is the first to start his time
