Teemu Suninen (M-Sport) took almost 4 seconds to Ott Tänak (Toyota) in the last time of the first stage of the Rally from Sardinia. The Finn failed just over 4 seconds behind Andreas Mikkelsen's scratch (Hyundai) who completed the 11km of Monte Baranta in 7'58''4. Esapekka Lappi (Citroën) was the closest, a tenth behind. Dani Sordo (Hyundai) followed less than 2 seconds behind. Kris Meeke (Toyota) followed at 6 seconds just ahead of Elfyn Evans (M-Sport).
Thierry Neuville (Hyundai) was one of the slowest, around ten seconds behind the benchmark. Jari-Matti Latvala (Toyota) finally retired after going off the road.
Dani Sordo should be in the lead with around 11 seconds ahead of Teemu Suninen who took Ott Tänak by 4 tenths. Andreas Mikkelsen would find himself 4th with a tenth ahead of Elfyn Evans. Kris Meeke would occupy 6th place ahead of Thierry Neuville and Esapekka Lappi. The results remain provisional, with the stewards having to award fixed times after the cancellation of SS7.
