The first full day allowed Sébastien Ogier and Julien Ingrassia, in fifth place overnight, to display all their skills on what was only their first visit to this event. Kimi Räikkönen and Kaj Lindström continued to climb their learning curve in the Citroën C4 WRC.
The Rally Sweden got underway yesterday evening with a spectator superspecial on the Karlstad trotting track. From the very first stage, Sébastien Ogier and Julien Ingrassia showed their class by setting secondfastest time, just behind another Citroën C4 WRC driven by Dani Sordo.
The action resumed on Friday morning with the Likenäs stage (SS2). Sébastien Ogier was right in the middle of the action with a fifth-quickest time. In ‘Viggen' and ‘Torntorp', the Frenchman underlined his progress by defeating a number of well-known names. "It was a good start," he said. "Only the real frontrunners are ahead of us. Being classified higher than drivers like Marcus Grönholm, along with Henning and Petter Solberg is a really good source of motivation!"
