 The American finished 9th today while leader Guillaume de Mevius finished 2nd, meaning he has lost further time to the Belgian GRally Team driver in the general rankings.

 “Today was alright, but not our best day. We had a couple of technical issues with the car set-up and stuff like that, so it was a little bit frustrating, but were here, we made it and we didn’t have any major problems other than that, so we’re happy at least. We just struggled with our top speed and stuff like that. Some simple things that we can switch so it’s no problem. The Empty Quarter sounds fine, it sounds nice to me, so I’m excited to get over there and go and do it”.
