Ogier nets fourth GB win

Sébastien Ogier won Dayinsure Wales Rally GB for the fourth consecutive season on Sunday afternoon.

Ott Tänak matched his career-best result by taking second place in a Ford Fiesta RS, with Thierry Neuville securing his fourth consecutive podium in a Hyundai i20 in third. The Belgian finished 1min 25.2sec behind Tänak.

Tänak won the final live TV Power Stage to claim three bonus points. Andreas Mikkelsen took two points for second in a Polo R while Neuville secured the final point.
