Kalle Rovanperä capitalised on team-mate Sébastien Ogier’s late misfortune to lead after Safari Rally Kenya’s vicious opening leg on Friday.
Championship leader Rovanperä languished in 11th overall on Thursday evening after puncturing a tyre on the curtain-raising super special stage, but was immediately into the podium fight on Friday’s sandy speed tests on the shores of the Great Rift Valley’s Lake Naivasha.
Wouldn’t have guessed that we would be leading #SafariRallyKenya…
