Duval - Schwarz - Auriol binnen de 5.7 sec voor één punt !!
en als ik goed kan tellen heeft Grönholm 1 punt beet voor Peugeot
Toch nog belangrijk dat hij morgen de finish haalt...
(als de puntentelling nog steeds is: 3 (of 2) wagens nomineren én 2 punten pakken per team)
Francois Duval suffered from understeer for the final five kilometres of
SS8 and then he struggled on the slippery ninth stage. Duval says his
priority for the final day of the event is to gain further experience of
the rally and try to get past Peugeot privateer Roman Kresta who is 19.8
seconds ahead. Duval is eighth.
Loix felt changes to the differential settings on his car hadn’t helped
with traction in the corners, but it had made the car easier to slow down.
Unfortunately for the Belgian he went off and into a ditch on the
Chemins-Sigale stage. The car was undamaged but couldn’t be extricated
from the ditch.
Sven Smeets said: “We were going down from the Col de Bleine and hit some
ice, we went into a ditch. It’s so annoying, the car is unmarked and only
just off the road, but it’s in the snow and not coming out.”
