Rather, Loeb and Latvala are now next to each others so JML doesn't benefit from Sordo's sweeping. Predictable move from Citroen.

He has a secret to it:

Matthew WILSON (GB) - SS 4 - JUMP START

So, here it comes: 18.8.1 Any lateness exceeding 15 minutes on the target time between two time controls, or a lateness exceeding 30 minutes at the end of each section and/or Day of the rally, or a total lateness for the whole of the rally of more than 60 minutes will result in the competitor concerned being excluded by the clerk of the course. The crew may nevertheless re-start the rally under the provisions specified in the relevant Championship sporting regulations, if applicable. In calculating such exclusion, the actual time and not the penalty time (10 seconds per minute) applies.

+46.7 at SS7 for Mikko? or time bug?

What wrong with Ford drivers?
Latvala +1:06.1

Maybe this strategy for "Ford win all SS Day2"
