It's a 1-2-3-4 for Toyota in SafariRallyKenya on Sunday morning, with WRC points leader Kalle Rovanpera on course to take his fourth win in five events. Full report:
Rovanpera notched up a fifth stage win of the event to increase an 40.3s overnight lead into a 56.6s advantage over teammate Evans.
M-Sport’s Craig Breen was the top Ford runner in sixth ahead of privateer Jourdan Serderidis and Hyundai’s Oliver Solberg. Sebastien Loeb rounded out the top 10 behind WRC2 leader Kajetan Kajetanowicz. The tricky soft fesh-fesh sand once again provided a challenge on the day’s first test and it ultimately contributed to organisers cancelling Stage 14.
The red flag was quickly upgraded to a cancellation. Seven cars had completed the stage, including Loeb who described the test as “a really bad stage” with “zero” visibility. Solberg dropped to eighth overall behind Breen and Rally 1 privateer Serderidis.Photo by: Red Bull Content Pool Evans dropped a further nine seconds to Rovanpera on the final stage of loop but admitted he was in preservation mode.
