WRC points leader Kalle Rovanpera continues to lead RallyEstonia after Sunday morning, while M-Sport's Pierre-Louis Loubet and Gus Greensmith retire. Full report:
Rovanpera continued his charge as the Finn picked up a hat-trick of stage wins to hold a 40.8-second lead over Evans with three stages of the gravel event remaining.
Blue skies greeted the drivers but the remnants of Saturday’s rain were evident in the form of large puddles on the day’s opening stage, a short 6.5km technical test. The Rally1 field successfully completed the stages apart from M-Sport’s Loubet, who hit one of several large rocks lining the road, which caused severe damage to his Puma’s front-left suspension.
Rovanpera dropped some time when he ran slightly wide on a section that caught out several drivers, including Evans, who dropped 9s to a 360-degree spin. Rovanpera completed a perfect start to Sunday by claiming a 13th stage win of the event, pipping Evans by 2s on the Kambja test, which will act as the rally-ending powerstage later on Sunday afternoon.
"I got caught in a mid-speed left-hander, I went a bit wide and lost the rear - I couldn't do anything," said Neuville.
