Wales Rally GB - day 3



Volkswagen Motorsport teams still dominate the final round of the World Rally Championship (Wales Rally GB) with Sébastien Ogier/Julien Ingrassia leading by a of 20.1 seconds over second place despite not having set a  fastest stage time all day.

Jari-Matti Latvala/Miikka Anttila remain 2nd overall once again showing complete commitment behind the wheel of their Volkswagen Polo R WRC. Jari-Matti Latvala has seen his lead over 3rd reduce slightly despite setting three fastest stage times.

Andreas Mikkelsen/Mikko Markkula staged an impressive charge through the early stages if day three setting two impressive fastest stages times and moving up the leaderboard from 6th to 4th overall. The duo are now just 20 seconds off the bottom podium step with 6 tricky and slippery Welsh stages remaining.

The remaining stages of day 4 are slightly shorter than those of day three but are expected to pose no less of a challenge, even the final 4.58 tarmac Great Orme stage can ruin the rally of the unwary (Ogier has crashed out there once before).
