🗣 'It was not the best afternoon but I’m still happy with the driving.' SebOgier believes incorrect weather information led to making a wrong call on tyres and set-up that ultimately cost him the WRC RallyItaliaSardegna lead ⬇️
The eight-time world rally champion was largely in command during Friday morning’s loop of stages, winning two of the three tests to open up a 16.3s lead over Hyundai’sThe highlight of the loop was a faultless first run through Monte Lerno , where he was 12.7s faster than anyone else.
Across the afternoon, Lappi took chunks out of Ogier’s lead, halving the deficit in stage five, before snatching the lead by 0.1s in the second pass through Monte Lerno. “It just went wrong at the service where we had the wrong information for the weather and we made the wrong tyre choice and also unfortunately we made the wrong choice with the set-up.
Looking ahead to Saturday, Ogier is expecting even more wet weather which will put the focus back on tyre and set-up direction.
