Sébastien Ogier (M-Sport) is the new leader of the Rally Mexico on the evening of the second stage. If the five-time world champion lined up the scratch points in the second run, he also took advantage of the problems of his direct opponents.
Sébastien Loeb (Citroën) and Dani Sordo (Hyundai) both suffered punctures in Guanajuatito (SS14) after hitting a stone on the road. If the Spaniard is still on the provisional podium after having managed to complete the course while losing half a minute, the Alsatian lost more than two minutes by being forced to stop to change his wheel.
The nine-time WRC champion is now in fifth place, 47 seconds behind Andreas Mikkelsen. The Frenchman maintains a lead of more than two minutes over Thierry Neuville (Hyundai), the author of several errors this afternoon which put his i20 WRC to the test.
Pontus Tidemand (Skoda) remains comfortably installed at the head of WRC 2, occupying seventh place in the general classification with more than five minutes ahead of the Fiesta R5 of Gus Greensmith.
