Sebastien Ogier will take a slender 11.1s lead into the final day of Rally Italy Sardinia after surviving a brutal Saturday that served up trouble for several World Rally Championship crews.
Toyota’s Ogier managed to hold his nerve in a tense and pressure-filled battle with Hyundai’s Ott Tanak in incredibly challenging conditions where the risk of puncture was high. Knowing that Tanak would be on a charge, Ogier was unable to back off and manage the puncture risk.
