Day 2 of Rally Sardinia is finished, and Petter is third overall. Petter and Phil were fast on many split sections today, and managed to get a stage win on SS11. – That was a proper stage, so it felt really good to be fastest there, Petter said after he had finished the day. – We were fast on many stages today, but the dampers got a bit warm at the end of the stage and we loses grip. But, we only have two Ford’s in front of us, and are the fastest Citroen today. We will really push hard tomorrow and try to keep Loeb behind us.

Jari-Matti Latvala is leading Rally Sardinia, and Mikko Hirvonen is second. Henning had to retire with a broken suspension on SS11.

Rally Sardinia continues with the 5 final stages Sunday. First car is on the road from 0708hrs.
