Toyota's Elfyn Evans was handed the lead in Rally Finland on Friday after team mate Kalle Rovanpera rolled his car out of contention.
Championship leader Rovanpera had been out front but the 22-year-old lost control on a right-hand corner 11.1 km into stage eight, with the car coming to rest on its roof on the side of the track.
Evans ended the day 6.9 seconds clear of Hyundai's Thierry Neuville, with Toyota's Japanese Takamoto Katsuta third and a further 9.5 behind. M-Sport Ford's overnight leader Ott Tanak retired in the morning after damaging his car beyond immediate repair on the third stage. "Due to impact damage on SS3 , sadly we have been left with no choice but to retire Ott's car from Rally Finland," M-Sport said.
