This long and tough day of the 66th Rallye Sanremo reached its end with the second loop on the San Romolo test where Simone Campedelli, Tania Canton and their Ford Fiesta R5 posted again the quickest time in 9.41.3s.
Behind them, Andrea Crugnola and co-driver Pietro Ometto put in a good test ending 2''9s behind on the Polo R5. They were followed by Giandomenico Basso and Lorenzo Granai on Skoda, 3s shy. Craig Breen and Paul Nagle did not take too many risks and end the day 20’’8s shy of Campedelli.
Giandomenico Basso held therefore on to the third place of the overall classification being 27’’5s shy of the Orange1 Racing’ driver.
