WRC Finland SS14: Loeb: Now it starts to look very difficult
After coming off second best to Mikko Hirvonen on the first of Saturday's repeated stages, defending World Rally Champion Sebastien accepted his victory battle with Hirvonen was looking 'very difficult'.
Completing the test 1.6sec slower than his rival, Loeb said he was driving on the ragged edge. "I have never taken so many risks in a stage and still there's no change," he said. I'm trying to catch him but now it starts to look very difficult."
Fresh from service, and with his Ford running increased ride height and stiffer springs, Hirvonen had a clean run through the 21.35km Leustu, run earlier as SS11, to set the fastest time and extend the gap to Loeb to 12.5sec
