A couple of icy sections on the early stages today caught out Tanak and Katsuta dropping them well down the order, Neuville and Seb had strong stage finishes on Friday to close down the slim lead of Elfyn Evans. On dry roads clear of snow and virtually ice free the pace of the top runners is pretty damn quick! Really strong spectator support again on Friday's daylight stages, I'm always amazed at their level of commitment, I've only ever attended one pukka rally and it took me all day and lot of legwork to 3 stages, these spectators are from a different planet!
