The Welshman produced his most convincing display in a Rally1 car to date on his way to a second WRC victory of the season by 39.1s over Hyundai’s Thierry Neuville.
Toyota’s Takamoto Katsuta (+1m36.7s) edged Hyundai’s Teemu Suninen (+1m41.0s) to the final podium position, while Toyota team boss Jari-Matti Latvala’s one-off WRC comeback resulted in an impressive fifth (+4m09.4s), in what was a rally of attrition.
