After a second day of testing, trying and traditional Wales Rally GB stages the Volkswagen Motorsport team of Sébastien Ogier/Julien Ingrassia lead the final World Rally Championship round by an increased margin. The duo are now 20.1 seconds in front of second place having set fastest times on all bar 3 of the events stages so far.
Jari-Matti Latvala/Miikka Anttila moved up from 3rd to 2nd overall after a determined and committed performance. Jari-Matti Latvala has gradually extended his lead over 3rd and now has a 42.5 second advantage.
Andreas Mikkelsen/Mikko Markkula remain in 6th overall a mere 1.1 seconds off 5th and just 32 seconds off the bottom podium step and a Volkswagen 1-2-3.
With 7 more demanding stages to run on day 3 Volkswagen Motorsport and their 3 teams aim to consolidate their advantage at the head of the leader board. Naturally on such a famously difficult event this is far easier to say than to do!
