Sebastien Ogier maintains lead, at SS16 |
At the end of SS 16,
Sebastien Ogier is showing his eagerness to keep his position over
Loeb and maintains a good 26.9s lead.
Loeb seems to be not in a hurry to push or being pushed as he is atleast 30+s lead from down under and probably waiting for the final day to yield the result he needs.

Rolled Qatar M-Sport Fiesta by Mathew Wilson |
Jari Matti-Latvala keeps his cool and his car on the road without any issues, while not worrying of the slip to 4th overall by a tiny 6.1s to the
Norwegian,
Qatar Fiesta driver
Mads Ostberg, who now settles in third position at the end of the day.

Celebrating the win - Solberg couple |
In the down order, it was
Mathew Wilson who went under serious scrutiny by the rally critics as he rolled the
Qatari's car on being a guest driver [since
Nasser had called in sick just before the start of the rally].
In the historic class, Petter Solberg with his wife/codriver Pernilla Solberg won the Rally by nearly 2 minutes in their Ford Escort Mk2 rally car.
