At the end of Saturday morning, Thierry Neuville still holds the lead at Acropolis Rally with Sebastien Ogier and Adrien Fourmaux following him.
Thierry Neuville remains the rally leader in Greece and responded to Sebastien Ogier's attack by setting the fastest time in Stage 10, but the Belgian was slower than Ogier in Stage 11, so their gap is now at 3,7 seconds.
Sebastien Ogier will chase Neuville for the first place of the overall classification as the nine-time WRC Champion was faster than Neuville in three stages this morning. In fact, Ogier was the fastest driver in Stage 8 and 11 while he headed to Stage 10 with a 4,9-second time disadvantage over Neuville.
Adrien Fourmaux keeps the third position on the classification and was the fastest driver in Stage 9 while he had a huge sideways moment in Stage 10 as he lost the rear of his Hyundai i20N Rally1.
Takamoto Katsuta climbed into the fourth position and gained two places in total this morning. In fact, the Japanese star initially passed Martins Sesks on the classification for 0,4 seconds after Stage 8 while his next target was Josh McErlean who was fourth before the start of Stage 9. Eventually, Katsuta overtook McErlean as well with their gap being at 13,5 seconds after SS9 in favor of the Toyota driver.
Josh McErlean dropped from fourth to fifth overall after the end of Stage 9 and will try to keep Elfyn Evans behind on the final two stages of Saturday.
Elfyn Evans moved ahead of Martins Sesks at sixth place after Stage 10 and managed to decrease his gap from the fifth McErlean to 8,5 seconds at the end of Saturday afternoon loop.
Martins Sesks dropped to seventh position overall on Saturday morning and slipped behind the sixth Evans for 6,3 seconds after the end of SS10.
Dani Sordo and Sami Pajari complete the top 9 with the last having a spin in a slow corner of Stage 10.
Oliver Solberg, Jon Armstrong and Jourdan Serderidis are outside the top ten as they restarted today under the SuperRally regulations following their retirements on Friday.
