Toyota appear set for a 1-2 as Latvia hosts the World Rally Championship for the first time
Kalle Rovanpera maintained his control of Rally Latvia as the Toyota driver closed in on a dominant World Rally Championship victory on Sunday morning. The two-time world champion was unable to relax with Super Sunday points on offer and managed to balance the need for points and to preserve his overall rally lead perfectly. Rovanpera headed into the final two stages with a 40.3s margin over Toyota’s Sebastien Ogier.
“We are here to help the team so we need to bring some points on Sunday, personally it’s not so fun when you’re in a good lead and you want to fight for the win, but we can do both.” Kalle Rovanperä, Jonne Halttunen, Toyota Gazoo Racing WRT Toyota GR Yaris Rally1 Photo by: Red Bull Content Pool The overall leaderboard remained largely unchanged as Sesks continued to hold third from a charging Tanak, desperate to salvage Sunday points.
