Thank you for following us this Saturday. Stay tuned to AUTOhebdo.fr to read the drivers' statements and see you tomorrow for the Power Stage!

The brief Torsby Sprint distance (2,80km) was enough to create a change in the overall standings. While Thierry Neuville (Hyundai) set his first scratch time of the Swedish weekend, Sébastien Ogier (Toyota) regained his third place against Kalle Rovanperä (Toyota). The gap, however, remains slight (half a second). 

With one stage remaining, Elfyn Evans (Toyota) is 17″2 ahead of Ott Tänak (Hyundai) and did the hardest to aim for victory.
