🗣️'You feel like you're driving an R5 car.' WRC veteran Dani Sordo admitted he felt like he was driving in different category when looking at the times set by Rally Portugal winner Kalle Rovanpera ⬇️
Rovanpera claimed a ninth career WRC victory in Portugal and his first of the season after dominating the rough gravel rally to defeat Hyundai’s Sordo by 54.7s.
Sordo’s Hyundai team-mate Esapekka Lappi, who finished third overall, added: “When I finished the stage it left like, as I said in the interview on the stage, horrible with no grip. “He is just beating us one second per kilometre just shows how good he is and we just cannot do it the same way.”
