Ogier continues to lead SafariRallyKenya over Toyota team-mate Rovanpera despite the conditons worsening on Saturday morning. Full report: WRC
Overnight rain created muddy and slippery conditions, increasing the difficulty for the crews that earmarked Saturday’s stages as the toughest of the rally.
There was further drama for Toyota as third-placed Evans stalled his GR Yaris following a rough entry to a water splash, an incident reminiscent to that the Toyota driver suffered in Sardinia. If anything, the stage conditions were even more challenging in stage nine as Rovanpera claimed a second fastest time of the rally. He shaved 0.6s from Ogier, who emerged as Rovanpera’s nearest rival.
"We could push a bit more, but for sure Seb is pushing a lot for this win," said Rovanpera."In our case we need to think about the championship also, because the guys in the championship are much more behind and the good points are coming.""When you see the puddles and mud, you brake and then you see if you survive," he said.
