Monte-Carlo Rally 2022
This is the end of this live text. Thank you for accompanying us throughout this 2nd day of Monte-Carlo 2022. See you this Sunday from 8:45 a.m. to follow the outcome of the battle between the two Sébastiens! Very good evening to all !
As expected, Loeb let several seconds slip away. 14'35"7 for the Alsatian, 21"1 from the lead but above all 16"1 from Ogier. The Gapençais now has a 21” lead before the final day of the rally. “It was a tricky stage where it was easy to make mistakes. But we are still here »
14'19″6 for Ogier, 5″ behind Rovanperä. He is now waiting for the arrival of Loeb who seems to have lost several seconds in the last part of the special
Neuville puts an end to his Saturday ordeal. He crossed the line with a time of 16'30″2, 2'15″6 slower than Rovanperä. The Belgian couldn't do anything because of the cumulative damage to his i20
Evans provisionally ranks 4th at 25 seconds from Rovanperä with a time of 14'39″6
Like Breen, Solberg clocked 14'35, 20″4 behind Rovanperä. The Swede managed to complete the day despite a capricious and damaged i20 since the second special of the day
Breen took no chances. Smoothly, the Irishman brought his Puma back to the finish for a final time of 14'35 to 20″4 from Rovanperä
Neuville still suffering. In addition to a damaged suspension, the Belgian is driving without snow tires. The journey may be very long for the Hyundai driver
14'14″6 here is the first reference signed by Rovanperä who ends his Saturday
Katsuta stopped in the middle of the special. The Japanese is stuck in the ditch but tries to get out again with the help of spectators present on site
Unlike Ogier who opted for two snow tires, Loeb chose two studded tires. It remains to be seen whether the Alsatian's bet will bear fruit and allow him to get closer to his opponent in the general standings.
The route of SS13, the last of the day
Winner of the last special, Rovanperä sets off to attack the SS13 which so trapped the competitors during the first pass earlier in the day
The start of SS13 is scheduled for 15:16 a.m.
