The Argentinean driver lost the lead of the general standings to title holder Eduard Nikolaev, but only by one second.

“We have two more stages. We were leading yesterday, but today we had a difficult day, so until the end it’s like we’re starting a new rally. It’s been a long rally and we’re happy to be here. I’m not nervous at all. We have been driving at our speed, but we had some mechanical issues today and we had to stop, but no, there’s no pressure. Three years ago when I started I didn’t really think I could be fighting at the front of the race because I’d never driven trucks in my life, but it looks like it’s gone okay for me”.
