In WRC2 success for Camilli’s Citroen. The brand colleague Ostberg is fourth in the category
On the last day of competition in Catalonia he preferred to take a cautious approach to avoid throwing everything away and did well. Without taking risks Thierry Neuville has won a perfectly managed rally since Friday morning. Behind the Belgian from Hyundai, 24 ”1 behind, Elfyn Evans, forced to make several changes on his Toyota due to instability. Third an amazing Dani Sordo. Perfectly at ease on his i20, the Spaniard left his mark in all the Sunday stages, including the Power Stage, surpassing a slightly subdued Sébastien Ogier in a Toyota, or perhaps more attentive to the general than to the ranking of the event.
Fifth, at 1’31 Kalle Rovanperä on Yaris, the victim of an exit without consequences, then at 4’17 the Ford Fiesta of Gus Greensmith, satisfied with his performance, and 4’26 Oliver Solberg, good at managing an i20 that is too understeer .
Good eighth a euphoric Nil Solans who, remember, was in his debut at the wheel of the Hyundai WRC Plus, so the Citroen C3 Rally 2 of Eric Camilli and Maxime Vilmot, triumphs among the WRC2. As for the cadet series, the other crew of the Double Chevron formed by Mads Ostberg and Torstein Eriksen, he finished 15th at 11’41 from the top and fourth in his category.
Nikolay Gryazin’s Skoda Fabia Rally 2 EVO closes the top 10 at 10’05.
In WRC3 first place for Emil Lindholm’s Skoda Fabia Rally 2 EVO, twelfth overall.
