Tanak turned heads throughout Friday’s running to end the day with three stage wins and a 3.8s lead over Lappi, who headed Toyota’s four car contingent.
Prior to the rally, Toyota were heavily tipped to dominate the fast gravel event given the GR Yaris has emerged as the pacesetting Rally1 car this year, with Kalle Rovanpera winning five of the seven rallies to date.
