Two to go for Ogier

Ogier set first and third fastest times on two extremely challenging Rally Monte-Carlo stages on Sunday morning. Neuville was the quickest across the two stages combined allowing him to jump Rovanpera who punctured on the opener.

Camilli chases Fourmaux

Camilli went fastest on Sunday's opener to close to within 9 seconds of Fourmaux. That momentum was lost on SS13, however, as Fourmaux went 19 seconds quicker than his French compatriot.

Mishaps and moments

Opening the road on Sunday, Loubet and Greensmith were the WRC guinea pigs in the ice of SS12 and the snow of SS13. Both were caught out on each stage, Greensmith's collision with an Armco barrier on SS13 spun him around but both crews survived without any damage.
