Meeke shines in Catalonia, Ogier on course for crown
Print Edition
Britain’s Kris Meeke bagged his second win of the season at the Rally of Catalonia yesterday as France’s Sebastian Ogier took a big step towards a fifth straight world title.
Meeke, driving a Citroen C3, maintained his overnight advantage to beat Ogier by 28 seconds. Ogier held off teammate Ott Tanak to claim second by a further five seconds in his Ford Fiesta. And Ogier extended his advantage in the world championship to 37 points over Tanak and 38 over Thierry Neuville, who was forced to retire yesterday with a broken suspension. Ogier and Tanak’s M-Sport World Rally Team is now also within touching distance of sealing the manufacturers’ title, which would be its first since 2007 with Ford. Just two races of the season remain — in Britain and Australia.
