Jyv\u00e4skyl\u00e4, Finland, Oct 2 (AFP\/APP):Elfyn Evans stormed into the lead of the Rally of Finland on Saturday as Sebastien Ogier, chasing an eighth world title, ended the day in fifth place.<\/p>\n

Evans, behind the wheel of a Toyota, began the day in third place but swept four stages in the morning to take a firm grip on the event, widely regarded as the fastest on the circuit.<\/p>\n

The Welsh flyer leads Hyundai’s Ott Tanak, who took three stages in the afternoon, by 9.1sec.<\/p>\n

That was enough for the Estonian to snatch second place from Irish teammate Craig Breen who is almost 20 seconds behind Evans.<\/p>\n

Finland’s Esapekka Lappi, in a private Toyota entry, is fourth with world champion Ogier, in another factory Toyota, at 1min 23.7sec off the pace.<\/p>\n

Ogier was seventh at the start of the day but benefitted from the retirements of young Finnish teammate Kalle Rovanpera and Belgium’s Thierry Neuville.
