POWER STAGE CLASSIC: FINLAND 2014
Next to winning their first WRC
rally, winning at home rates just
as highly for most WRC drivers.
This week’s classic Power Stage
takes us to Finland in 2014, when
Jari-Matti Latvala was trying to
do just that. Having to settle
for a 2nd, 3rd and 17th in the
preceding years, Looking back
to the summer of 2014. Going
into Sunday morning, Latvala and
his Volkswagen team-mate
Sébastien Ogier were locked in
their own battle, with thirdplaced
Kris Meeke more than 30
seconds behind in his Citroën DS
3. Winning the opening test of
the morning, Latvala opened the
gap to Ogier to 5 seconds, but
this would be as big a lead as
Ogier would allow his team-mate…
setting up the perfect finish.
