Neuville soars in Australia

Belgium鈥檚 Thierry Neuville won the season-ending Rally Australia in Coffs Harbour yesterday to clinch second place at the World Rally Championship. Neuville mastered the slippery final stages following morning rain to hold on to his overnight lead in his Hyundai and claim the season鈥檚 final event. Frenchman Sebastien Ogier had already won the 2017 WRC heading into the Australian leg but Neuville鈥檚 victory ensured he finished as runner-up. In a late twist, second-placed Jari-Matti Latvala struck trouble and went into the trees on the final stage in his Toyota. The Finn鈥檚 misfortune promoted M-Sport鈥檚 Ott Tanak to second.
