Carlos Sainz brings Ford its first scratch time aboard the Raptor homologated to FIA 2025 standards. In the general classification, Nasser Al-Attiyah distanced Sébastien Loeb and Guillaume de Mévius.

Ranking Rally from Morocco 2024, Stage 4:

General classification :

  • This Thursday, October 10, the Rallye du Maroc saw its fourth different stage winner in as many days of competition. Carlos Sainz and Lucas Cruz (Ford) are making waves, discovering the new Ford Raptor in competition.
  • The Spanish duo beat Yazeed Al Rajhi (Overdrive Racing) by 1'46". Guerlain Chicherit placed his Mini in 3rd position, 3'21 behind. The Ford Raptor is not, however, registered in the FIA ​​Ultimate class like the other 4x4s in the race, but in the Experimental category. The Ford has been homologated according to the FIA ​​2025 standards, and is therefore transparent to the race classification.
  • The official Dacias are further behind than in previous days. The leader of the Rally of Morocco, Nasser Al-Attiyah, is thinking about the W2RC championship, of which he could become the title holder again tomorrow evening. However, he has regained almost 3 minutes on Sébastien Loeb (Dacia), and can more comfortably consider the prospect of a victory in the Rally of Morocco, on the eve of the finish.
  • Winner on Wednesday, Sébastien Loeb (Dacia) had to open the special. The Alsatian was less comfortable in this role and this was felt in the intermediate times. He lost his place on the provisional podium, now overtaken by Guerlain Chicherit, winner of the 2022 Rally of Morocco.
  • Second place in the race remains held by Guillaume de Mévius (Mini). However, the Belgian has lost valuable minutes to Al-Attiyah and is flirting with a 10-minute deficit to the official Dacia.

    In response to Jacques' message, it's not just the journalists at Auto-Hebdo who are shameful, but the entire profession. Between the "I" and the "what do we do?", the ratio of grammatical errors is close to: one sentence, one mistake!

    Well done on this daily column. And a big shout-out to the Dacia Sandrider!
    Dakar, here we come!
    A good result, too, from Grégoire de Mevius, who seems to have made the right choice by leaving Toyota, the team that trained him.

    I don't know if it's a good idea to learn to read with Autohebdo given the level of French of your journalists!
    ASHAMED !!!!
