A fastest stage time on Friday’s final stage means Sebastien Loeb will take a rally lead of 3.8 seconds into the second day of Rally de Espana.

The Frenchman completed the repeated mixed surface Les Garrigues stage three-tenths quicker than fellow Citroen C4 WRC drivers Petter Solberg and Sebastien Ogier who were second and third fastest respectively.

The result keeps Loeb first on the road for Saturday’s competition, which is based purely on asphalt.
